Asthma is sometimes missed in older adults because symptoms can resemble other conditions — including chronic bronchitis, heart issues, or general deconditioning.
Common symptoms
- Shortness of breath with activity
- Chronic cough
- Wheezing
- Chest tightness
- Symptoms worse with infections, smoke, or allergens
At Asthma, Allergy & Immunology, P.A., we focus on accurate diagnosis and individualized treatment — especially when multiple health conditions overlap.
