Asthma Treatment in Johor Bahru

Asma

Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition that causes airways to become inflamed and narrowed, making breathing difficult. In Malaysia's humid climate with high haze exposure, asthma affects both children and adults. Proper management with the right inhaler technique and trigger avoidance can control symptoms effectively.
