The term 'Asthma' is taken from the Greek meaning ' panting' or 'labored breathing'. Asthma is a condition characterized by a paroxysmal wheezing respiration dyspnoea (difficulty in breathing), mainly expiratory. Asthma is a disease that intermittently influences the lungs. When it attacks, the lungs become infected and the airways slim. The sufferer's chest reduces, breathing becomes difficult or wheezy, and a consistent cough may develop - especially during the night. Asthma can be triggered by allergic reactions or have its starting point from a stressful amount of life such as infection, a grief, or even the birthday of a baby. Thousands die from asthma each year. That is a serious disease that is increasing in frequency. For children and adults alike, they have difficulty to breathe during an asthma attack can be a frightening experience. Whilst conventional medications relieve many of the symptoms of asthma, they can cure it. With homeopathy, it is a different story.
The key Causes of Asthma:
Regarding the etiology, bronchial asthma is broken into the following groups:
1. Sensitive (extrinsic/ atopic) Asthma - This type of bronchial asthma usually starts in child years and is often forwent by eczema. But almost all of the young adults (<35 yrs.) developing bronchial asthma also fall into this category. Genetic factors also play a tremendous role we this. Through this type of asthma, the allergen causes the production of abnormal (IgE) immunoglobulins.
2. Infective or Intrinsic Asthma - This is not genetic or allergic, but may be caused by, or at least associated with an upper respiratory area or bronchial infection which is usually viral.
3. Emotional Asthma - Internal factors (like anxiety, psychological stress etc.) are often considered to be the only cause of some asthmatic attacks, but it is still not certain whether it can be the only cause or is merely a precipitating factor.
4. Occupational asthma - This can take place in certain industries in which there exists exposure to metallic dust particles (esp. platinum salts), natural detergents, toluene diisocyanate, polyurethane material, flour and dust from grains and so on
Whatever may be the cause, it finally causes paroxysms of bronchial blockage produced by widespread bronchial spasm accentuated by inserting of the bronchi with excessive mucus.
