Asthma

At Brampton Internal Medicine, we provide expert diagnosis, treatment, and long-term management of asthma—a chronic lung condition that can significantly affect quality of life if left untreated.

Our goal is to help you breathe easier, stay active, and gain control over your symptoms through personalized, evidence-based care.

What is Asthma?

Asthma is a condition that causes the airways to become inflamed and narrowed, making it harder to breathe. It can be triggered by allergens, exercise, infections, cold air, or environmental irritants.

Common symptoms include:

  • Shortness of breath

  • Wheezing or whistling sound while breathing

  • Chest tightness or pressure

  • Persistent coughing, especially at night or early morning

Our Approach to Asthma Management

Our internal medicine specialists work with you to create a tailored treatment plan that helps minimize symptoms and reduce flare-ups. Care may include:

  • Detailed assessment of symptoms and triggers

  • Pulmonary function testing (spirometry)

  • Education on inhaler use and trigger avoidance

  • Prescription of controller and rescue medications

  • Ongoing monitoring and follow-up to adjust treatment as needed
