FAQ
Here are a few of the common questions patients ask us on a regular basis and our answers to them.
Does Getting rest Actually Help with Recovery?
Yes. While rest alone will not be enough, it can help to promote recovery. While sick, the body uses up more energy to fight the illness. Due to this, people who are sick have much less energy and are more tired.
If I have an issue like Asthma, will the treatment drastically change my lifestyle?
In many cases, not as drastically as you might think. Since each patient is unique, there is a chance that the condition may be more serious for one person than it is for others. With that in mind, we will help the patient learn how to live with asthma and continue to live life to the fullest.
Is being out of breath from exercising the same as a Respiratory Issue?
If you are out of breath from exercising or completing a strenuous activity, then that in of itself may not be the sign of any real issue. However, if minimal physical activity of any kind causing breathing issues or being near grass seems to make it harder to breathe, then there may be a general respiratory issue.
How Long will the treatment last?
The length of time for the treatment will vary greatly based on the patient's needs. While some conditions will go away after a few days or weeks of treatment, other conditions will take longer. In those cases, we will recommend the most effective course of action.
Will Medications in Stores help with Treatment?
In many cases, not really. If we prescribe an antibiotic or medication, it will be much stronger than any store-bought medication on a shelf. While those can help to temporarily provide relief for symptoms, they will not be effective in providing long-term relief.
