Using the Asthma Toolbox

Board-certified allergist Dr. Paul Carter and host Liz Edwards discuss all the tools in the specialist's toolbox for an accurate asthma diagnosis and an effective treatment plan.

Beginning with the allergic march, Dr. Carter reviews the progression of allergies to asthma and its telltale symptoms. He explains what a first visit looks like, what triggers can exacerbate asthma, and how a diagnosis is made.

Dr. Carter also describes the different levels of asthma, their corresponding treatment options, and how those treatments work. But most importantly, he reveals the significant impact effective treatment can have on a patient's quality of life.
