Asthma
Asthma is a disease in which inflammation of the airways causes
airflow into and out of the lungs to be restricted. When an asthma attack
occurs, mucus production is increased, muscles of the bronchial tree become
tight, and the lining of the air passages swells, reducing airflow and
producing the characteristic wheezing sound.
Asthma
is a chronic lung disease in which the person’s ability to breathe easily gets
badly affected. It is a health ailment in which the flow of air that takes
place in and out of lungs gets obstructed, thus making respiration difficult.
Some of the asthma symptoms include coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath and
chest tightness.
Here
is presented a list depicting a couple of causes of asthma:
·
Air
pollution
·
Non-specific
hyperirritability
·
Allergy
to pollen and dust particles
·
Respiratory
infections
·
Certain
medications
·
Sulphites
in food
CAUSE
According
to the aetiology, bronchial asthma is divided in the following groups:
1.
Allergic (extrinsic/ Atopic) - This type of asthma usually starts in
childhood and is often preceded by eczema. But most of the young adults (<35
yrs) developing asthma also fall in this category. Genetic factors also play a
significant role this. In this type of asthma the allergen leads to production
of excessive (IgE) immunoglobulin.
2.
Infective or Intrinsic - This is not hereditary or allergic,
but may be caused by, or at least associated with upper respiratory tract or
bronchial infection which is usually viral.
3.
Psychological factors (like anxiety, emotional stress etc)
are often considered to be the sole cause of some asthmatic attacks, but it is
still not certain whether it can be the sole cause or is only a precipitating
factor.
4.
Occupational asthma - This can occur in certain industries
in which there is exposure to metallic dusts (esp. platinum salts), biological
detergents, toluene di isocyanate, polyurethane, flour and dust from grains
etc.
WHAT
ACTUALLY HAPPENS?
What
ever may be the cause, it ultimately leads to paroxysms of bronchial
obstruction produced by widespread bronchial spasm accentuated by plugging of
the bronchi with excessive mucus.
SIGNS
AND SYMPTOMS
·
Recurrent
episode of paroxysmal dyspnoea (difficulty in breathing)
·
The
breathing is laboured, with a wheezing sound, mainly on expiration.
·
Asthma
attacks often occur in the early hours of morning (when there is no immediate
precipitating cause). During the attack patients often prefers to sit then lie
down.
HOW
DIAGNOSIS IS DONE?
Diagnosis
can usually be made clinically by a competent doctor. Allergen sensitivity
tests, X-ray, spirometry, sputum and blood tests etc may be of use in finding
the cause and severity of the condition.
WHAT
TO DIFFERENTIATE FROM?
- Bronchitis
- Cardiac
asthma
- Renal
asthma
- Isolated
attacks of non-paroxysmal dyspnoea.
COMPLICATIONS
·
Apart
from chronicity, usually no complications.
·
Pneumothorax,
emphysema, or areas of consolidation or pulmonary collapse may occur in very
advanced cases.
CONVENTIONAL
TREATMENT
Bronchodilators,
anti-allergic drugs, and corticosteroids are commonly used to provide
symptomatic relief.
LIFESTYLE
AND ACCESSORY MANAGEMENT
·
Avoid
the allergen you are sensitive to.
·
Do
regular light exercise like brisk walking or jogging. Heavy exercise can
precipitate an attack of asthma, so always do mild exercise without putting too
much strain on your body.
·
Learn
breathing exercises to improve your lung capacity. Of especial use is 'pranayama',
a yoga exercise.
·
Learn
some stress relieving exercises, meditation, or yoga to minimize the
psychological factors related to disease.
·
Eat
healthy, nourishing and well balanced diet.
TREATMENT
& HOMEOPATHIC MEDICINES
General
Approach - As far as I know homeopathy is the only system of medicine which
tries to 'cure' this disease, instead of trying to provide symptomatic relief.
While dealing with a case of asthma, a homeopath not only records the symptoms
of the disease but also studies the medical history, family history, physical
and psychological characteristics of a person. This helps to find the
cause, the precipitating factors, and the hereditary tendency etc. Of special
interest to a homeopath is the history of suppression of skin disease.
Homeopaths believe that when there is a tendency or predisposition for a
disease - it first manifests on the less vital organs, towards the periphery
(like skin). If this manifestation is suppressed than the disease shifts
inwards, towards the more vital organs (like lungs, heart, brain etc).
The
fact that in children asthma is often preceded by eczema is observed by the
allopaths also. This fact is written in all their textbooks of medicine. They
say that children often 'move-out' of eczema and 'move-into' asthma. But they
are unable to make a correlation. Homeopaths believe that the suppression of
eczema with topical preparations, does not cure the disease/sensitivity of the
person, it merely drives it inwards.
Now
after ascertaining the symptoms and the cause, the homeopath tries to find a
medicine which matches the symptoms as well as the general characteristics of
the person. The medicine so selected is administered to the patient.
It
is often (not necessarily) observed by homeopaths that when a right medicine is
given, the asthma disappears but the old eczema (if it was there originally)
reappears for some time, before finally disappearing itself. This reappearance
of old symptoms is seen as a reversal of disease process and is considered a
very good prognostic sign by homeopaths.
Treatment
Symptomatic Homoeopathic medicines works
well for all types of Asthma Without any side effect.
