ASTMA
Asthma is a chronic
inflammatory disease of the airways characterized by variable and reoccurring
symptoms reversible airflow obstruction or simply, we can say it is a chronic
lung disease which inflames and narrows the airways. Asthma effects people of
all ages, but it most often starts at childhood. This can make breathing
difficult and trigger coughing, wheezing. Asthma cannot be cured but can be
controlled by taking proper precautions and medicines.
According to
Ancient Ayurveda, Asthma is known as a "Swas Rog" and is
characterized by the inflammation of the bronchial airways leading to increase
mucus production. In the preliminary stage of asthma patient may complaint of
indigestion, constipation, tightness of chest later it leads to sneezing,
wheezing, and indicating the attempt of the body to remove congested phlegm
that has blocked the respiratory passage from nose to lungs.
What Are
The Causes Of Asthma?

some people get asthma or some not, but it is probably due to combination of
environmental and genetic factors.
