Breathe Easy, Nigeria! Conquer Asthma and COPD

Okay people, let’s talk about breathing. Not just the “in and out” kind, but the “deep, satisfying, can-finally-climb-the-stairs-without-wheezing” kind. If you’re one of the millions of Nigerians dealing with asthma or COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease), you know that the quest to conquer asthma and attain good breathing can be a daily struggle. But guess what? Technology is here to help!

Telemedicine: Your Pocket-Sized Lung Doctor

Imagine this: You wake up with a tight chest and that dreaded wheezing sound and after the regular scrambling for and using your inhaler, you either choose to lay in your bed hoping for the best or whip out your phone, have that quick video chat with your CloudClinic doctor and get the personalized advice/treatment adjustments (because live can get better than the regular), all without leaving your house.
