My Sister(Age-25) is suffering from disease like ASTHEMA(but not exactly ASTHEMA because we have done all test for ASTHEMA in our local hospital butt all test are negative). Now my quary is that in which department i have to consult.
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic. I can understand your concern. Consult pulmonologist and get done PFT (Pulmonary Function Test). PFT will not only diagnose asthma but it will also tell you about severity of the disease and treatment is based on severity only. She will need inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or salmeterol) and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) (budesonide or fluticasone). She may also need oral combination of antihistamine (levocetrizine or fexofenadine) and anti allergic (montelukast) once a day at night. Don't worry, she will be alright. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your sister. Thanks.
