What is asthma and how it is treated

Asthma is a common disease caused by narrowing of the bronchus and then the patient complains of:

  • The sound of whistling in the breath.
  • Feeling bad in the chest.
  • breathing difficulties

Symptoms usually do not appear continuously, but intermittently depending on the situation.

There are several things that cause asthma symptoms:

  • Exposure to cold air.

When symptoms appear, patients are advised to use aerobic sprays to expand the bronchial tubes, which are used when needed.

The other type of treatment is the one that is used daily to control the symptoms of asthma and to reduce the acute attacks as much as possible.

There is usually a schedule and treatment plan for each patient according to his / her condition in which the type of treatment needed is determined whether cortisone sprays with a simple dose or sprays containing a combination of cortisone and bronchodilator at different doses.

An asthma patient should be fully aware of his / her condition and what to do if a severe asthma attack occurs to prevent a worsening of the condition.

It is also important to know which treatments are used regularly and to adhere to them and which treatments are used when necessary. Also, you must learn the mechanism of using the correct sprays, because the wrong use leads to deterioration of the condition.

Medical assistance should be requested as soon as possible if the patient does not improve after the use of the bronchodilator several times or if the condition has been corrected despite the correct use of the treatment.
