FAQs
What is the difference between allergy and a cold?
A cold may include fever and body aches. Allergy usually causes sneezing, itching, watery eyes, and is often triggered by seasons or dust. A doctor’s evaluation helps confirm the exact cause.
Is allergy lifelong?
Some allergies improve over time, while others can be persistent. With trigger control and proper treatment, symptoms can be well managed.
What should I do if I have wheezing?
Wheezing or breathlessness should be evaluated by a doctor. If breathing becomes difficult or severe, seek urgent medical care immediately.
