ALLERGIC ASTHMA

The characteristic symptoms of allergic bronchial asthma are - excessive coughing, tightness on the chest, breathing characterized by whistling and groaning.

ANGIOEDEMA

Angioedema is the swelling of the deeper layers of the skin and subcutis, due to the inflammatory extravasation of the blood vessels in the affected area. Angioedema is the clinical manifestation of the release of histamine and other mediators by certain cells called mast cells. In some cases, it can lead to serious complications.
