Other respiratory conditions

In addition to the major respiratory conditions, there are other respiratory illnesses such as the common cold, flu, bronchitis, bronchiolitis, allergies, rhinitis, sinusitis, pneumonia, and lung cancer. On the other hand, some diseases of non-respiratory origin may eventually affect the respiratory system, such as tuberculosis, Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and other neuromuscular diseases or alterations of the ribcage.

Any severe chronic respiratory disease can also trigger mental health disorders, such as anxiety or depression. In this context, psychological support is a fundamental tool for these patients and their families.

OXIGEN salud offers physical and emotional support to all its patients and their caregivers so that they can adapt their therapy and lead the best quality of life.
