Pediatric Asthma

An asthma nebulizer is a great way to effectively administer asthma medication.  Asthma nebulizers work by transforming your asthma treatment medication from a liquid to a mist, making it easier to take.  These asthma care tools are usually only used for infants and small children who have a hard time using their asthma inhalers the right way.  If your child has experienced any possible signs of asthma, it’s never too soon to schedule an appointment with an asthma doctor.  Receiving an official asthma diagnosis will allow you to charter the best possible course for effective pediatric asthma treatment.

Nasal Allergies

No one should have to experience the scary and potentially dangerous symptoms of an asthma attack.  The best way to protect yourself against a surprise asthma attack is to keep your asthma inhaler or nebulizer on hand at all times; you never know when your asthma symptoms may start acting up again.  In some cases, symptoms of asthma can often be confused with nasal allergies or another respiratory issue.  For this reason, we strongly recommend scheduling an allergy test as soon as possible to rule out any possible allergens that are keeping you from breathing as easily as you would like.
