Respiratory Health

Inflammation and narrowing of the airways can make breathing difficult, especially during exercise, allergies, or weather changes.
COPD commonly causes progressive breathlessness, especially in smokers and older adults.
Pneumonia, bronchitis, tuberculosis, and other lung infections may cause difficulty breathing along with cough and fever.
Scarring of the lungs can reduce oxygen exchange and lead to increasing breathlessness over time.
Fluid around the lungs can make breathing uncomfortable and may require prompt medical attention.
Sleep-related breathing disorders may contribute to daytime fatigue and episodes of breathlessness.
Certain heart diseases can also cause shortness of breath. If required, additional evaluation or referral may be recommended.
In some individuals, anxiety or panic attacks may contribute to breathing difficulties after other medical causes have been evaluated.
Shortness of breath can have different underlying causes. Identifying the cause is important for appropriate medical evaluation and management.
Treatment depends on the underlying condition responsible for your symptoms.
Inhalers and controller medications help reduce airway inflammation and improve breathing.
Long-term medications, pulmonary rehabilitation, and lifestyle modifications can help improve breathing capacity.
Appropriate treatment is provided for bacterial, viral, or fungal lung infections based on the diagnosis.
Patients with significantly reduced oxygen levels may require supplemental oxygen.
Breathing exercises, physical activity guidance, and rehabilitation programs help improve endurance and lung function.
