Asthma Attack?

People suffering from asthma usually have trouble when it comes to breathing due to inflammation of the airways found in the lungs. Symptoms of someone suffering from an asthma attack are paleness on the face, rapid breathing, coughing, chest pain, and tightened chest muscles. In the early stages of asthma, aggressive treatment is necessary to prevent asthma attack. Talk to a doctor who will give you a variety of treatment methods that are available as well as recommending the method that best suits your condition. Asthma inhalers are one of the most common first aid treatment devices used all over the world.it is important to know how to use an asthma inhaler. During asthma attack, you can use an inhaler to help you stop coughing and wheezing. Asthma inhalers can be found as either Metered dose inhalers (MDIs) or Dry powder inhalers (DPI).The MDIs slowly puffs medicine into your mouth as you press the nozzle of the inhaler. For the Dry powder asthma inhaler, you have to breathe in as the drug enters your lungs. Drugs used in inhalers are anti-inflammatory medicines such as steroids. Steroids work before and not during asthma attack. It is important to take steroids on a daily basis or as prescribed by a doctor. When it comes to very young and old asthma patients, a breathing machine can be very useful when it comes to breathing during asthma attack. You can use a Peak Flow Meter; this is a medical test that will warn you when you are just about to get an asthma attack. You should also have an action plan when it comes to handling your asthma condition. For instance, keeping an asthma diary will help you keep a record of periods when you mostly have asthma attacks. By monitoring your asthma, you are in a position to minimize symptoms and prevent asthma attack. There are doctors that advocate for natural asthma relief medication in form of herbs, diet supplements or homeopathy among others. For expectant women, being asthmatic should not be a scary situation as long as you have a doctor to give you guidelines on how to manage your asthma condition during pregnancy.

How many people die of asthma a day?

Here's a cut and past from the AAFA website talking about asthma mortality. Mortality * Each day 11 Americans die from asthma. There are more than 4,000 deaths due to asthma each year, many of which are avoidable with proper treatment and care. In addition, asthma is indicated as "contributing factor" for nearly 7,000 other deaths each year. [14] * Since 1980 asthma death rates overall have increased more than 50% among all genders, age groups and ethnic groups. The death rate for children under 19 years old has increased by nearly 80% percent since 1980. [15] * More females die of asthma than males, and women account for nearly 65% of asthma deaths overall. [16] * African Americans are three times more likely to die from asthma. African American Women have the highest asthma mortality rate of all groups, more than 2.5 times higher than Caucasian women. [17]


Can you still dive With asthma?

I have had asthma for 13 years now, and I have driven many many miles since I was first diagnosed. Driving while having an asthma attack is not preferable, but it can still be done. The best thing for everyone's safety is to pull over some where safe and use your rescue inhaler. Because I had small children when I was first diagnosed, I wanted to be sure that everyone would be safe if I had an asthma attack when driving. So I taught my son how to steer the car over to the side of the road and put the car into park,just in case mom couldn't. All my children also knew how to call 911 by 4 years old for just such an emergency.
