How specifically can a person get rid of asthma?

Answer 1

Asthma is a chronic disease for which there is no cure - you cannot get "rid" of it. However in most cases it can be controlled and symptoms greatly reduced or alleviated with the right combination of medications. There are also remedies that help some (not all) get better control of their symptoms. Sometimes Allergies can cause asthma-like conditions and determining what they are and avoiding those things as much as possible can help.

There has also been recent evidence that acid reflux and asthma may be linked in some cases. Some people are helped tremendously by taking reflux medications such as Prilosec, etc. but you should have a doctor check that out before taking anything.

People diagnosed with asthma as children sometimes seem to grow out of it so in that sense for some it does go away. For others it gets worse as they grow older. If you're dealing with asthma in a child Isee a pediatric pulomologist because there are other issues that can cause similar symptoms in children.

These are some things you can do if you have excersise-indunced asthma

• Try not to use your inhaler as often (take 2 puffs before doing an excersise, don't take more than 2 puffs every 4 hours)

• Drink more water, it'll help you re-gain energy

• Take breaks, if you are jogging or sprinting or perhaps playing a sport,you need to take breaks even if you don't want to

• Stop to breath once-in-a-while and remember to wear warm clothes if jogging in a cold place
