Bronchial asthma is one of the most common chronic inflammatory respiratory diseases. It is estimated that about 5 million people suffer from it in Poland. Early diagnosis of the disease and selection of appropriate treatment allow you to control symptoms such as shortness of breath, cough or tightness in the chest, significantly improving the quality of life. For the treatment of asthma, inhalations of anti-inflammatory glucocorticoids and bronchodilators are used. A nebulizer is used to administer some medicines.
