Our lungs are essential for every breath we take. When lung function is compromised, even simple tasks can become exhausting. At RK Chest Super Specialty Hospital, we specialize in diagnosing and treating a wide range of common lung diseases, helping patients breathe easier and live better.
🔹 1. Asthma
A chronic condition that inflames and narrows the airways. Symptoms include:

- Chest tightness
- Coughing (especially at night)
Our team offers advanced inhaler therapy, medication plans, and allergy management.
🔹 2. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
COPD includes chronic bronchitis and emphysema. It is mostly caused by long-term exposure to irritants like tobacco smoke.
Symptoms include:
- Persistent cough with mucus
- Shortness of breath
- Frequent respiratory infections
We provide lung function tests and long-term treatment programs tailored to each patient.
🔹 3. Pneumonia
An infection that inflames the air sacs in one or both lungs, leading to:
- Fever and chills
