[Hello Doctor] Asthma: How to Live Better with this Chronic Respiratory Illness?

On Tuesday, May 6th, in celebration of World Asthma Day, Allô Docteur presents a show dedicated to this chronic respiratory condition that affects many people in Mauritius.

Asthma manifests as inflammation of the bronchi, leading to coughing, wheezing, chest tightness, and breathing difficulties, especially when exposed to certain triggers like pollution, pollen, or infections.

What are the causes? How can one recognize an asthma attack? Is it possible to engage in sports when you have asthma? And most importantly, how can one maintain a good quality of life on a daily basis?

To discuss these topics and answer your questions live, Allô Docteur will host Dr. Rajiv Kumar, a Senior Consultant in respiratory diseases and president of the Mauritian Respiratory Society.

Call us at 208 4999 / 5999. You can watch the show live on the defimedia.info Facebook page.
