What is asthma?


Asthma is a condition that affects the airways - the small tubes that carry air in and out of the lungs. People with asthma have airways that are almost always red and sensitive (inflamed). These airways can react badly when you have a cold or other viral infection, or when you come into contact with an asthma trigger.
A trigger is anything that irritates the airways and causes the symptoms of asthma to appear. Common triggers include colds or 'flu', cigarette smoke, exercise and allergies to things like pollen, furry or feathery animals or house-dust mite. Everyone's asthma is different and you will probably have several triggers
What causes asthma?

Asthma, like its related allergic conditions eczema and hay fever, often runs in the family and may be inherited.
There are probably a number of other, environmental, factors that contribute to someone developing asthma - many aspects of modern lifestyles, such as housing and diet, might be responsible. We also know that smoking during pregnancy increases the chance of a child developing asthma. There is no evidence that traffic pollution causes asthma, although poor air quality can be a trigger if you already have it.

How can Homeopathy help?

Homeopaths prescribe a "constitutional medicine," a remedy that is individually chosen to the totality of symptoms that the person is experiencing, not just the asthma symptoms. Homeopaths treat the patient behind the asthma. Treatment procedures differ in the course of an attack, and in the long term.It is a myth that homeopathic treatment cannot control an acute attack of asthma, or that the response is slow. We can very well treat an acute phase of asthma without the use of bronchodilators. Finding a person's constitutional medicine requires the care of professional homeopath.
