Asthma symptoms range from mild to severe. It can be persistent yet minor, or it can result in a sudden, life-threatening asthma attack. Symptoms may include:
Determining a person’s specific asthma triggers may feel like solving a puzzle; however, once your trigger (s) are identified, asthma can be much more readily managed. Genetics do seem to play a part. People with asthma or allergies in their family are more likely to develop asthma themselves.
Corpus Christi Allergy Associates’ first step will be a physical examination and testing to rule out any other conditions that may mimic asthma symptoms, including respiratory infections and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We also offer pulmonary function tests to determine how effectively your lungs are working.
Studies show that when an allergist treats asthma, it results in a 77% reduction in time lost from work or school.
The diseases affect the respiratory system and cause symptoms that include coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath. Allergists can provide testing and treatment to identify triggers for your asthma to allow for better asthma control. Learn More.

Both asthma and bronchitis can either be intermittent or persistent and can be exacerbated by allergens.
Unfortunately, it’s quite common for people to have an allergic reaction when exposed to their furry friends. Most animals, including cats and dogs, carry around proteins in their skin cells and saliva that may cause an allergic reaction. These year-round allergens can affect the eyes, throat, and ears of an individual. Allergists can help identify these allergens and come up with a treatment plan specific for each patient.
