Questions your doctor may ask to check for atopic asthma

Your doctor may ask these questions to diagnose atopic asthma

  • Do you have a dry cough?

  • Do you have headaches or does your head feel heavy?

  • Do you have coughing fits?

Treatment for atopic asthma

Asthma is treated by avoiding triggers, using "rescue" inhalers during attacks, and "preventive" inhalers. The doctor may prescribe different inhalers for different purposes (prevention and rescue). Other types of inhalers and tablets can be added to improve control. In cases of Severe and Uncontrolled Asthma, biologic therapies should also be considered, which are targeted medications that address specific immune system pathways and reduce inflammation in the airways. Severe attacks can be life-threatening and require emergency medical care. Doctors who specialize in treating patients with asthma are called allergists and pulmonologists.
