Yes, Swans Can Have Asthma

this is a theory which has spent many many years at the hands of some of the worlds finest scientists, and still -even after these many many years- the result has been inconclusive.

It has recently been noticed that kids that spend a lot of time around cats (and enjoy eating their furr) develop some of the symptoms of asthma, these are choking and shortness of breath. But the scientists cannot decide whether it is asthma or them choking on cat hair that is causing this. the modern day cat has been proven to spend many more hours aroung its owner than it's less modern day friends who were a much less loving and owner friendly species, so keeping this in mind if the cats are planning a rebellion, in which they will give the whole world asthma by feeding young children their hair, then there has not been a more suspicios time for our feline friends.

Three changes occur in the bronchial openings of the lungs:

1. Constriction of the muscles lining the tubes

2. Inflammation of the lining of the tubes themselves

3. Accumulation of fluid in the tubes

All 3 contribute to a decrease in the cross-sectional area of the tubes, preventing sufficient airflow to the asthmatic patient. The fluid buildup also contributes to the coughing associated with an attack.

Asthma Attack is the inability to breath, essentially you smother

The bronchioles and bronchi (tubes through which the air passes) of the lungs constrict which hinders the passage of oxygen into the alveoli where gas exchange takes place.

Asthma is a disorder

Most probably not, because asthma is a form of allergy, not a disease. Hence, it does not have a causative organism against which we can get immunised by vaccination.

people with a illness called asthma often need to use a puffer to help breathe more easily.

Throughout the DC area, including Maryland and Virginia in the United States, asthma is a major health concern due to the number of asthmatics with poor symptom management. Asthma is a national epidemic, lowering business productivity and causing damaging absences from school. Across the country in 2008, asthma caused businesses to lose 14.2 million work days overall, and children were absent from school for a staggering 10.5 million days.

When developing your family's asthma management strategy, it is very important to discuss how to limit exposure to triggers. When asthma is managed properly, there are fewer emergencies like frantic trips to the emergency room or using the fast-acting inhaler yet again.

After you've tried carpet, upholstery and mattress cleaning, consider the allergens that may be in your air duct and HVAC system.

No, you are not due any certain benefits because your child has asthma. In fact, you don't deserve a hand-out nor will you receive a dime by exploiting your child's sickness for monetary gain.

It will affect your lungs and breathing.

Not really, if you are vomiting and this continues for a protracted period of time it's best to seek medical help. I wouldn't be too worried about Oxygen Saturation to be honest, I'd be more concerned about whether he had a temperature and what his pulse rate was like. High temp and rapid pulse could indicate infection. On top of that, dehydration is a problem if he isn't keeping anything down, particularly fluids. Best to get him checked out.

(i am not a doctor or anything) but if there is dangerous mold or mildew this could worsen a persons athsma, but athsma can not be an effect of the bad conditions of a house.

According to WHO estimates, 300 million people suffer from asthma and 255 000 people died of asthma in 2005.
