Specializes in Pediatric Allergy and Asthma

The finding states that it is a mild or slight prominence. Correlation to your history, symptoms and family history of cardiovascular and pulmonary disease are recommended. Please consider weight reduction, metabolic testing and cardiac evaluation after discussion with your PCP. You may have allergic disease and lab based testing is available. Avoid smoke, dust, pollen, animal dander.
