Asthma is an ancient Greek word meaning “panting or short drawn breath”. It is the most troublesome of the respiratory diseases. The asthma patient gets frequent attacks of breathlessness in between which he is completely normal.
Asthma Symptoms
The general asthma symptoms are -
Coughing - Persistent coughing is the first symptom of asthma. The coughing is continuous. It is worse in early morning and when we are outside home. The cough is often accompanied with mucus and burning sensation in the throat.
Wheezing – It is a whistling sound which occurs when the patient berates. This sound is caused by the narrowing of the airway.
Chest Pain – Coughing is often accompanied with chest pain or feeling of pressure on the chest.
Breathing Problem – One feels that he can't breath in properly. This causes rapid breathing and rise in the rate of heart palpitation.
Causes of Asthma
The cause of asthma is unknown till date. Also it is not fully understood as to why asthma occurs in some but not in others. Asthma symptoms vary over time, and also differ from one individual to another. Some common causes of asthma are allergens from nature like house dust mite and cockroach, grass, pollen, foods, climatic changes, animals like cats, dogs etc.
Ayurveda classifies the causes of asthma into three based on the causative factors - Diet related factors, Work related factors and Other Factors
What happens during an asthma attack?
The inside wall of the airways become narrow and inflamed. They bloat up and get filled with fluid and mucus cells. Obstruction is further caused by tightening of muscles that surround the airways. This situation is called bronchospasm. In some people with asthma, the mucus glands in the airways produce thick mucus in large quantities, further obstructing the airways.
Chronic inflammation is considered to be the major cause of an asthma attack. The inflammation may last for weeks following an attack. Most people with asthma have some degree of inflammation all the time.
When inflammation occurs in the airways, they become sensitive. When the airways are more sensitive, a person is more probable get an asthma attack when exposed to things that trigger asthma.
