Allergy and Asthma Conditions

What are Allergies? 

Allergies occur when your immune system reacts to a foreign substance, which is normally harmless. These substances can include pollen, mold, animal/pet dander, bee venom, certain foods and latex.

Asthma

Asthma is a condition that affects a person's airways. Airways become inflamed, narrow, and swell and produce extra mucus, making it difficult for the person to breathe.
