About Allergic Asthma in Kolkata
Allergic Asthma is the most common form of asthma, a chronic respiratory condition in which the airways become inflamed and narrowed in response to exposure to specific allergens such as pollen, dust mites, mold, or pet dander. This inflammation causes the airway muscles to tighten and produce excess mucus, leading to episodes of wheezing, coughing, and difficulty breathing. Symptoms can range from mild and infrequent to severe attacks that require emergency treatment, and are often worse during allergy seasons or after exposure to specific triggers. The condition frequently coexists with other allergic conditions like allergic rhinitis and eczema.
