Allergic asthma is a common form of the condition. It’s asthma that’s triggered by allergens such as dust mites, pets and pollen, so you should try to manage your exposure to these where you can (keeping your pets out of your bedroom for example, and clean your pet’s bedding and toys regularly). You’ll usually be prescribed a preventer inhaler and a reliever inhaler to tackle the symptoms.
Asthma chest pain is a common reaction to allergies and can easily be mistaken for other health problems, such as a heart attack.
