Asthma is not a one-size-fits-all diagnosis, as there are, in fact, several different types based on triggers and severity:• Allergic Asthma: Triggered by allergens like pollen or dust mites. Treatment may include allergen avoidance and medication.• Exercise-Induced Asthma (EIA): Symptoms worsen during physical activity. Treatment can include using a bronchodilator inhaler before exercise.• Occupational Asthma: Caused by workplace irritants. Treatment involves avoiding triggers and using protective equipment.• Non-Allergic Asthma: Triggered by infections, cold air or stress. Treatment focuses on controlling inflammation with medications.• Severe Asthma: Characterized by frequent and severe symptoms. Treatment may include biological therapies and bronchial thermoplasty.Being informed on these different types can help you get the treatment you need.
