Allergy
An allergy is the body's immune response to generally harmless substances such as pollen, dust, or certain foods. When exposed to an allergen, the immune system overreacts, resulting in symptoms such as sneezing, itching, swelling, or more severe reactions. Common allergens include animal dander, mold, and insect bites. With proper diagnosis and treatment, allergy symptoms can be relieved.
Asthma
Asthma is a chronic respiratory disease in which the airways become inflamed and narrow, making it difficult to breathe. Common triggers include allergens, pollution, exercise, and cold air. Symptoms include wheezing, coughing, difficulty breathing, and chest tightness. Asthma can be controlled with medication and lifestyle changes, helping patients manage their symptoms and maintain a good quality of life.

These clinics focus on conditions such as allergies, asthma, autoimmune diseases, and immunodeficiency disorders. Patients receive specialized care to manage overactive immune responses, such as in allergies and autoimmune diseases, or underactive, leading to frequent infections. Immunology clinics offer personalized treatments to improve patients' immune health.
