Asthma Specialists vs. a Family Doctor
While a family doctor can manage mild asthma cases, persistent symptoms often require specialized care. Family doctors may recommend basic treatments or a rescue inhaler for asthma.
Our asthma specialists use advanced diagnostics, like lung function tests, to determine the root cause of your condition.
At Allergy & ENT Associates, our team creates a personalized treatment plan to help you address the root cause and manage and reduce your symptoms, improving your quality of life.
What’s Causing Your Asthma Flair Ups
A family history can increase your likelihood of developing asthma.
Pollen, mold, dust mites, pet dander and cockroaches can cause allergy-induced asthma.
Air pollution, tobacco smoke, ongoing exposure to chemicals and environmental exposures can make asthma worse.
Viral infections, like the flu, during childhood can increase asthma risk.
Physical activity, particularly in cold or dry conditions, may trigger exercise-induced bronchoconstriction. This is more commonly known as exercise-induced asthma.
High levels of stress or anxiety can exacerbate asthma symptoms in both children and adults.
