Causes Of Asthma And Its Top Early Symptoms by bloomstar: 12:28am On May 25, 2018 |
Asthma is a common lung condition that causes occasional breathing difficulties. It affects people of all ages and often starts in childhood, although it can also appear for the first time in adults. There’s currently no cure for asthma, but there are simple treatments that can help keep the symptoms under control so it doesn’t have a significant impact on your life. Some people, particularly children, may eventually grow out of asthma. But for others it’s a lifelong condition. Early Symptoms of asthma The main symptoms of asthma are: -wheezing (a whistling sound when breathing) -breathlessness -a tight chest – which may feel like a band is tightening around it -coughing The severity of the symptoms varies from person to person. They usually come and go, but for some people they’re more persistent. Asthma symptoms can sometimes get temporarily worse. This is known as an asthma attack. When to get medical advice Several conditions can cause similar Early symptoms of Asthma, such as a chest infection or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), so it’s important to get a proper diagnosis and correct treatment. Your doctor will usually be able to diagnose asthma by asking about your or your child’s symptoms and carrying out some simple breathing tests. But these are often difficult to do in infants and young children, so the diagnosis may be made on the basis of symptoms and response to a trial of treatment with an inhaler. Causes of asthma Asthma is caused by inflammation (swelling) of the breathing tubes that carry air in and out of the lungs. This inflammation makes the breathing tubes highly sensitive, so they temporarily become narrow. This may occur randomly, or after exposure to a trigger. The tubes may also sometimes become clogged with sticky mucus. Common asthma triggers include: -allergens, such as house dust mites, animal fur and pollens -other irritants, such as cigarette smoke, strong smells, gases and -cold air -exercise (including marathon sex) -chest infections The reason why some people develop asthma isn’t fully understood, although it’s known that you’re more likely to develop it if you have a close relative with the condition. Treatments for asthma While there’s currently no cure for asthma, there are a number of treatments that can help control the condition. Most asthma treatments are taken using an inhaler, a small device that delivers a spray or powder medicine to your breathing tubes as you breathe in. The main treatments are: -identifying and avoiding asthma triggers if possible -reliever inhalers – inhalers used when needed to quickly relieve asthma symptoms for a short time -preventer inhalers – inhalers used regularly every day to reduce the inflammation in the breathing tubes, which prevents asthma symptoms occurring You’ll usually draw up a personal action plan with your doctor or asthma nurse. This will include information about your medicines, how to monitor your condition and what to do if you have an asthma attack. How long does asthma last? Asthma is a long-term condition for many people – particularly if it first develops in adulthood. In children, it sometimes disappears or improves during the teenage years, although it can return later in life. The symptoms can usually be controlled with treatment and most people will have normal and active lives, although some people with more severe asthma may have persistent problems. Complications of asthma Although asthma can normally be kept under control, it’s still a serious condition that can cause a number of complications. This is why it’s so important to follow your treatment plan and not ignore your symptoms if they’re getting worse. Badly controlled asthma can cause issues such as: -persistent tiredness -underperformance or absence from work or school -psychological problems – including stress, anxiety and depression -disruption of your work and leisure because of unexpected visits to your doctor or hospital -lung infections (pneumonia) -in children, delays in growth or puberty -There’s also a risk of life-threatening complications, such as severe asthma attacks. source:http://generalhealthinfo.com/2017/11/07/asthma-in-detail/ 10 Likes 2 Shares |

A major trigger of asthmatic attacks is "humidity". It's strange that climatic condition is often ignored. Sleeping in An air-conditioned room could make all the difference for a lot of asthmatics. 6 Likes |

Get diagnosed early. Know your peculiar symptoms and get treated immediately. Pple find it difficult to go to the hospital these days. So many delay treatment until damage has-been done to their bodies. God heal us all 1 Like |

Get diagnosed early to know your triggers. If you can DO NOT USE INHALERS. Once you start using inhaler, you can't do without it. Ventolin, Piriton and Franol, can help. In all cases, pray to God for healing. I have seen people prayers healed theirs. 6 Likes |

I have lived with Asthma since childhood and I am still managing it now that I am married with a child. I don't wish asthma to my worst enemy cos this disease nearly ruined my life. The best way to manage asthma is just know what your allergies are and avoid them completely and always carry your inhaler on you everytime. 3 Likes |
