Urgent Care Asthma Treatment in Connecticut, Massachusetts & New York
Residents of Connecticut, Massachusetts, and New York can rely on PhysicianOne Urgent Care for asthma treatment. Our network of urgent care centers has been treating patients since 2008, and we take pride in delivering top-quality care with ease and speed.
Asthma Symptoms
Asthma causes the lung’s airways to narrow, swell, and produce extra mucus. When this happens, it can lead to:
- Difficulty breathing
- Shortness of breath
- Coughing
- Wheezing
- Chest pain or tightness
Asthma Triggers
Many individuals experience mild asthma symptoms on a regular basis. But asthma symptoms can also be brought on by certain triggers. Some common causes of asthma attacks include:
- Allergies
- Certain medications (e.g., beta blockers and NSAIDs)
- Cold and dry air
- Environmental irritants (e.g., dust and smoke)
- Exercise
- Respiratory infections (e.g., the common cold and pneumonia)
- Stress
Asthma Management & Treatment
If you think you might have asthma, it’s important to consult with a professional, since treatment can help manage symptoms, slow the condition’s progression, and prevent complications. Asthma treatment often includes avoiding triggers, using an inhaler, and taking medication.
PhysicianOne Urgent Care treats mild asthma flare-ups, but you should be sure to call 911 or get to a nearby emergency room if your shortness of breath or wheezing is rapidly worsening, your symptoms don’t improve after using an inhaler, or you experience shortness of breath even when performing minimal physical activity.
