Type 2 Diabetes

Type 2 diabetes occurs when the body cannot use insulin correctly and sugar builds up in the blood. It was once called adult-onset diabetes.
Over time, high blood sugar levels in type 2 diabetes can damage the eyes, kidneys, nerves and heart. This can happen because the pancreas doesn't make enough of a hormone called insulin that helps sugar enter the cells. It happens also because the cells respond poorly to insulin by taking in less sugar.

Adult and Adolescent Asthma

Asthma is a long-term disease that causes inflammation and swelling of the airways. This results in narrowing of the airways that carry air from the nose and mouth to the lungs.
Asthma symptoms include trouble breathing (shortness of breath), wheezing, coughing, and tightness or pain in the chest. Symptoms can be triggered by different things for different people. Allergens, like dust or pet dander, are common triggers. Some people also develop asthma symptoms in response to certain foods or to exercise.
Please call our office for more information.

Chronic Cough

A chronic cough is a cough that lasts eight weeks or longer in adults, or four weeks in children.
A chronic cough is more than just an annoyance. A chronic cough can interrupt sleep and leave those who suffer from it feeling exhausted. Severe cases of chronic cough can cause vomiting, lightheadedness, and even rib fractures.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a chronic inflammatory lung disease that causes obstructed airflow from the lungs. Symptoms include breathing difficulty, cough, mucus (sputum) production and wheezing. It's typically caused by long-term exposure to irritating gases or particulate matter, most often from cigarette smoke. People with COPD are at increased risk of developing heart disease, lung cancer and a variety of other conditions.
Dust mites are the most common cause of perennial allergic rhinitis, but it can be caused by any allergen (allergy-inducing substance) that you are exposed to year-round. The other most common causes are cats and dogs.
Please call our office for more information.
