Asthma in Adults

It is possible to develop asthma as an adult; however, it is far more common among children.  Anyone who has experienced possible asthma symptoms is advised to seek medical assistance right away.  Adult asthma and pediatric asthma can both range from mild to severe; no matter how bad your allergic symptoms, it’s always best to have assistance by your side.  If you often experience shortness of breath in every day situations, asthma inhalers will do you a world of good.  If you experience this sensation while running or walking, it’s possible you have developed exercise induced asthma.

Signs of Asthma and Allergies

There are dozens of possible signs of asthma and allergies.  A professional allergist will be able to tell you whether you have asthma, severe seasonal allergies, or both.  After your skin allergy test, your allergy doctor will be able to prescribe you the necessary allergy medications to have you feeling back to normal as soon as possible.  Some of the most common nasal allergies we see among our patients are dust mite allergies, pollen allergies and pet allergies.  With the help of an air purifier and hypo-allergenic bedding and blankets, you will be well protected from your allergy symptoms!
