Nebulization
Nebulization is a fast and effective treatment that delivers medication directly into the lungs through a fine mist, making it easier to breathe. It is commonly used for respiratory conditions such as asthma, bronchitis, COPD, pneumonia, allergies, and other lung-related diseases. This method ensures that medication reaches deep into the airways, providing quick relief from symptoms like wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and coughing.
Nebulization is especially beneficial for young children, elderly individuals, and patients who have difficulty using inhalers. It helps in reducing inflammation, clearing mucus, and improving overall lung function. Regular nebulization therapy can significantly enhance breathing capacity and quality of life for individuals with chronic respiratory conditions. At Shreesha OrthoMed Speciality Clinic, we provide safe and supervised nebulization services for effective respiratory care.
