Allergies, asthma in children: How to take care during the festival?
Asthma and allergy are very old problems. About 50 years ago, there was no suitable explanation for the problem of allergy. After that, research information became available on many problems, such as pollen hay fever (fever), atopic dermatitis, asthma, and serum IgE. Through this, it was discovered that an allergy is an immunological process. Also, this allergy causes asthma. But it has been confirmed that allergies are not the only cause of asthma; there are also non-allergic causes. Asthma can also be caused by obesity, which is called non-allergic asthma. This problem is also becoming more common.

KMC Hospital Manglore | Dr. Anurag Shetty, | Bloating
Feeling bloated or gassy is a frequent cause for complaint and many people think they have overdone it on a meal or suspect they have a touch of indigestion. While these are common suspects —particularly in those that eat a high amount of beans, lentils, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, sprouts or dairy —we have to consider a wider and sometimes more serious scope of reasons why you are feeling these symptoms.
