Frequently asked questions

Accordion Content

You should consult a pulmonologist if you’re experiencing persistent cough, shortness of breath, wheezing, chest pain, frequent respiratory infections, or if you have a known lung condition like asthma, COPD, or ILD.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a progressive lung condition, often caused by smoking. We manage it through inhaler therapy, pulmonary rehabilitation, oxygen support, and lifestyle modifications.

It depends on your condition. For chronic diseases like asthma or COPD, tests may be done every 3–6 months. Your pulmonologist will recommend the appropriate schedule based on your needs.
