Allergy and Asthma Treatments – Inpatient, Outpatient, Anytime…

Allergy

OMHS provides treatment to the region for the onset of allergic reactions.  The severity of allergic reactions can run a range of causing discomfort all the way to being life threatening.  Allergic reactions can be caused by single or multiple triggers, but the good news is that allergic reactions are reversible conditions with the proper diagnosis and treatment.

An allergy is an exaggerated immune response or reaction to substances that are generally not harmful. To learn more about allergic reactions, tests and treatments for allergies, click here.

Asthma

OMHS Respiratory Department is on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to assist people with the onset of an asthma attack.  Asthma attacks produce a feeling of “air hunger” and can be brought on by stress, exertion, and as a side effect of a severe allergic reaction.  For proper diagnosis and treatment of a sudden onset of an asthma attack visit the OMHS Emergency Department.
