Asthma Guidance Clinic

Asthma Guidance Clinic

Asthma cannot be cured, but can be controlled very well- if you take action for your child today under good supervision

For parents

Asthma is a condition that affects the airways and lungs. It can be controlled by avoiding the irritants that trigger the conditions and make them worse. The things that trigger Asthma are pollen, mould, weather changes, viral cold, etc. We guide parents regarding the disease process and educate them on the tools, flu vaccine, signs of a flare-up, conditions where the flare-up gets severe.

We patiently guide parents regarding use of inhalers with a spacer. A spacer creates a space between the child’s mouth and the medicine and helps in breaking the medicine into smaller droplets which can get in deeper and more accessible into the lungs.

For children

Your child will be guided by us on how to use the inhaler with a spacer. The child is also made aware of the triggers and flare-up situations, and he is educated regarding prevention and handling of such situations. We even train them with some special exercises that they need to follow and also which ones to avoid. The flu vaccine is recommended for all kids, especially those dealing with Asthma; these vaccines prevent severe flare-ups and even severe illness.
