Can Asthma Go Away? |
|
Most of the time, asthma is a chronic condition that does not completely go away, even though the symptoms of the condition can be effectively managed and reduced. However, with childhood asthma, many children can outgrow the condition once they reach adulthood. With that being said, having childhood asthma increases one’s risk of developing adult-onset asthma, even if they outgrow childhood asthma. |

Who Can Receive Allergy Immunotherapy? |
|
Anyone over the age of five can receive allergy shots, but other diseases and health issues should be considered with your allergist before pursuing immunotherapy. Generally, there are minor reactions to allergy shots, such as swelling or discomfort, and severe reactions are very rare. It is always a good idea to review your medical history and health concerns with your doctor before beginning a new medical procedure that may or may not be right for you. |
