I visited the Urgent Care Plus location regarding my daughter’s seasonal allergies last week.
Doctor Luk and his team are doing a fantastic job and trying to do everything to ensure the patient was treated correctly and answered all the questions before the patient left.
Dr. Luk is so knowledgeable and welcoming, and nurses are very friendly with patients and their families.
I’m so glad they’re close to my home.
What Is a Nebulizer Treatment?
A nebulizer is a machine that turns liquid medication into a fine mist you inhale through a mask or mouthpiece. This mist goes directly into your lungs, making it ideal for treating acute breathing problems quickly and effectively.
We commonly use nebulizer therapy for:
- Asthma exacerbations
- Wheezing and chest tightness
- Bronchitis or reactive airway disease
- COPD flare-ups
- Upper respiratory infections causing airway inflammation
Medications may include albuterol (a bronchodilator), steroids, or a combination–depending on your specific symptoms and diagnosis.
Signs You May Need a Nebulizer Treatment
You should consider walking in for a nebulizer treatment if you’re experiencing:
- Shortness of breath that isn’t improving with an inhaler
- Chest tightness or wheezing
- Persistent coughing with difficulty breathing
- Known asthma or COPD with worsening symptoms
- Inability to complete normal activities due to breathing trouble
Prompt treatment can help prevent complications and reduce the need for emergency room visits.
