asthma & allergy related disorder

Asthma and allergy-related disorders are chronic conditions that can significantly impact an individual's quality of life, particularly in children. Asthma is a respiratory condition characterized by inflammation and narrowing of the airways, leading to symptoms such as wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath, and chest tightness. Allergies, on the other hand, are hypersensitivity reactions to substances like pollen, dust mites, pet dander, or certain foods. These reactions can cause symptoms such as sneezing, itchy eyes, skin rashes, or digestive issues. Asthma and allergies often coexist, as allergens can trigger asthma attacks, worsening respiratory symptoms. Management of these conditions typically involves a combination of medication, such as inhalers for asthma and antihistamines for allergies, along with lifestyle modifications to avoid triggers. Proper diagnosis and a personalized treatment plan are essential for effectively controlling symptoms and enabling individuals to lead active, healthy lives.
