Bronchial Asthma Disease I
Bronchial asthma is a chronic disease that clogs the respiratory tract because it causes inflammation of the tubes that carry air the lungs as a result of excessive sensitivity or allergy to irritants, for example, pollen, smoke, dust, certain medications or hair animals.
Symptoms:
Bronchial asthma is manifested by choking, coughing, chest tightness and wheezing. When a person is stable, breathing can be regarded as the air is able to flow freely into the lungs, but if you have a cold, flu or is exposed to the substances mentioned above, the airways become obstructed.
This happens because the walls are inflamed, the muscles contract around them, and it adds high production of mucus, which further narrowed these channels making breathing difficult. Can occur at any age, but hardly before los2 or three years and is not curable, it is only possible to control it.
Causes of Asthma:
• Exaggerated airway sensitivity to certain elements, such as pollen, dust, smoke, animal hair, feathers and certain foods (fish, shellfish, peanuts and eggs) and some medications. Once one of these elements enter into the airway, it attacks the cells lining the inside, which respond by releasing chemicals that cause inflammation and hardening of the muscles. When this happens, it increases the production of mucus that is thick and sticky, and breathing is difficult.
• Cold weather or high humidity.
• Infections caused by viruses.
• cigarette smoke and environmental pollution.
• strenuous physical exercise.
• Intense emotional changes, such as happiness, sadness, fear and anger.
• Allergies.
• Anxiety and stress.
