Treatments Offered

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a long-term lung disease that makes breathing difficult. It includes conditions like chronic bronchitis and emphysema, mainly caused by smoking or air pollution. Symptoms include cough, breathlessness, and wheezing. While not curable, COPD can be managed with medications, lifestyle changes, and oxygen therapy to improve quality of life.

Asthma

Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition where the airways become inflamed and narrow, making it hard to breathe. Common symptoms include wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath, and chest tightness—often triggered by allergens, exercise, cold air, or pollution. While asthma has no cure, it can be effectively controlled with inhalers, medications, and avoiding triggers, allowing most people to lead normal, active lives.

Emphysema is a form of COPD where the lung's air sacs (alveoli) are damaged, causing shortness of breath and poor oxygen exchange. It’s often caused by long-term smoking or air pollution. Symptoms include chronic cough, breathlessness, and chest tightness. Though not curable, emphysema can be managed with medications, lifestyle changes, and oxygen therapy to improve breathing and quality of life.

Emphysema
Interstitial Lung Disease

Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) is a group of lung disorders that cause inflammation and scarring (fibrosis) of lung tissue, making breathing difficult. Symptoms include dry cough, breathlessness, and fatigue. It can result from autoimmune diseases, environmental exposures, or have no known cause. Though often progressive, early diagnosis and treatments like antifibrotic drugs, steroids, or oxygen therapy can help manage symptoms and improve quality of life.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a sleep disorder where breathing repeatedly stops during sleep due to airway blockage. It causes loud snoring, daytime tiredness, and poor sleep quality. Common in people with obesity or a family history, OSA can increase the risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, and stroke. Treatment includes lifestyle changes, CPAP therapy, oral devices, or surgery. Early diagnosis helps restore better sleep and health.

Pulmonary Hypertension

Pulmonary Hypertension (PH) is a condition where high blood pressure in the lung arteries strains the heart. Symptoms include breathlessness, fatigue, chest pain, and leg swelling. Causes range from heart and lung diseases to blood clots or unknown factors. While PH is progressive, early diagnosis and treatment with medications, oxygen therapy, and lifestyle changes can improve symptoms and quality of life.
