Asthma is difficulty in breathing due to narrowing of the small airways in the lings called the bronchioles. In older children and adults this narrowing causes a musical wheeze. In younger children the only symptom may be a cough that is usually worse at night. Most doctors would agree that asthma is on the increase, probably due to rising levels of pollution.
Causes of Asthma
Bronchioles have muscles in their walls. Under normal conditions these muscles are relaxed, allowing air to pass freely. If the airways are irritated, for example by cold air or smoke, the muscle contracts and the tube narrow. The muscle in the airways of asthmatics is abnormally sensitive and will contract at the least provocation. Apart from straight forward irritation, the three main provocations are infection, allergy and emotion. All will have some effect but the proportion caused by, say, allergy will vary from person to person. It is obviously a good idea to look at the causes before treating the symptoms.
Cardiac Asthma
The typical asthmatic will come from a family where hay fever and eczema are common. Cardiac asthma is caused by fluid accumulating in the lungs, making it difficult to breathe. This usually happens when the pumping action of the left side of the heart is reduced, resulting in congestion and increased pressure in the blood circulation through the lungs. It is usually a result of old age and can be caused by taking beta-blockers. The sufferer may be treated for heart failure or with bronchodilator drugs. In severe conditions its better to consult a doctor. But using natural foods can also be helpful to cure asthma.
