Causes and remedies for asthma increase in winter season
  Date : 26-04-2024

Dr. Muhammad Mahtab Hossain Mazed: Shortness of breath like fever is not a disease in itself. It appears as a symptom of other diseases. Symptoms of nasal congestion, runny nose, itchy and watery eyes, chest tightness, cough, sneezing, shortness of breath, etc. are usually accompanied by shortness of breath. Maybe. Each year in winter, 80 percent of children and 40 percent of adults experience an increase in the severity of asthma or shortness of breath. The main reasons for this are: cold, fever or flu outbreak at this time, cold-dry air which constricts respiratory system, increased amount of dust and smoke in winter, fog and closed humid environment etc. All of these increase the sensitivity of the respiratory system, which in turn increases the suffering of the asthma patient. Asthma is an incurable disease. Therefore, asthma patients must be more careful at this time. Many people suffer from asthma problemsAsthma is a chronic problem that causes difficulty breathing. This is a problem that can be fatal. Asthma can be a problem for one person at a time. Sneezing, coughing, chest tightness, difficulty breathing etc. are some of the symptoms of asthmaPeople suffering from chronic diseases like asthma, chronic bronchitis, ILD, etc., have fragile respiratory system. Coronavirus infections therefore increase their risk of complications. Such patients may develop not only acute pneumonia but also acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). In ARDS, lung tissue does not receive enough oxygen.

There are some foods that increase the health risks of asthma patients. Today, coronary asthma patients are at risk. Dr. Mahtab Hossain Mazed, a prominent researcher and founder of Bangladesh Patient Welfare Society, writes in his column ...Outbreaks appear to be exacerbated during this period of time.Today, about 6.3 percent of those who have died from coronavirus infection worldwide in two years had respiratory problems. Lung diseases that carry a higher risk of corona complications include asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). COPD includes both chronic bronchitis and lymphoma. The main cause of COPD is smoking. So those who have been smoking for years have an increased risk of complications from coronavirus infection. Asthma is a chronic and life-threatening lung disease, known in our country as asthma, which is usually accompanied by coughing and shortness of breath. It is a very ancient disease in the Pak-Indian subcontinentThe first ideas about the disease were found in the early nineteenth century in the history of medical scienceAt the turn of the 21st century, with adequate research and experimentation and no permanent cure for asthma in allopathy has yet been discovered, the disease can be controlled only by treatment but it can be completely cured by homeopathy. And although we don`t know the exact number of asthma attacks in our country, about 20 million people in America suffer from asthma. Only 10 million of them (including 3 million children) suffer from allergic asthma. Therefore, it can be said that the incidence of asthma is not less in our country

Studies have shown that with proper and regular treatment and a planned lifestyle, these patients can be saved from the onset of asthmaOutbreaks appear to be exacerbated in some islands around the world, such as Esta-de-Cune, where about 47% and more people live, and an island called Koriliski, where 20 to 60% are infected. People suffer from this disease. Similarly, there are many countries in the world where the rate of this disease is very low, such as Zambia, Nigeria, Kenya, etcAsthma is such an incurable disease that once afflicted, the patient has to spend a lifetime in agony, the person suffering from asthma can never join in social or family fun, can not take part in any hard work, he has to spend many days under house arrest. Cold weather is extremely dangerous in most patients` fields. In the cold of monsoon, the disease increases in cold of winter. Bronchial asthma especially increases in winter. Winter cold is unbearable for the patient. In winter, if a little cold air or fog enters the nose, sneezing first causes runny nose and then shortness of breathWhen it rains a couple of drops of rain water, sleeping at night by an open window, traveling in wet air, the symptoms increase.

2 types of asthma: -* Acute Asthma: - Severe Asthma - Acute asthma in which the airways in the lungs suddenly constrict and cause difficulty in breathing.* Chronic Asthma: - Chronic asthma causes frequent asthma attacks and requires treatment to control and prevent the disease.

★ Cause - * Allergic asthma usually builds up resistance against our immune system when an allergen or antigen enters the lungs through inhalation. Such as- flower pollen, hair of different animals, mite and dust etc. As a result, normal breathing is disrupted and hapani occurs. It is also called atopic asthma or allergic asthma.

* Non-Allergic Asthma This type of asthma is not caused by allergies but by smoking, chemicals, bacterial infections, stress, laughter, excessive exercise, aspirin, food preservatives, perfumes, excessive cold, hot, humid and dry. .

Different types of asthma: -

* Mixed asthma: - In this case the patient suffers from the aforesaid allergic and non-allergic asthma. In some cases the incidence increases. * Nocturnal asthma: This type of asthma attacks at night, especially between 2 and 4 at night. The patient falls asleep early at night due to physical weakness. Even short-term sleep during the day. Nocturnal asthma should be taken seriously as in this case the patient dies due to respiratory arrest.* Bronchial asthma: - It is basically a kind of allergic reaction that causes shortness of breath and wheezing in the chest. Contraction of the muscles and mucous membranes around the trachea occurs. The main causes of respiratory infections, airborne allergens, food allergens and excessive stress* Cardiac Asthma: -When the heart loses its normal blood circulation, pulmonary edema or constriction of airways in the lungs constricts the airways and causes asthma. This is extremely deadly. It attacks after a few hours of sleep because water accumulates in the lungs while lying down. Shortness of breath causes the patient to lose sleep and gradually return to normal after sitting for a while. This type of problem is more common especially in winter* Occupational asthma: Occupational or industrial asthma usually occurs within a few months to a few months of taking the job. Symptoms usually subside as soon as you leave the workplace or while on vacation. `S` Mill Powder, Chemical Smoke, Always Dusty Environment, Cement Factory, Garment Factory, Flour & Spice Mill, Rice Mill, Jute Mill, Spinning Mill, Dyeing Factory, Chemical Fertilizer Factory, Photocopy Machine, Driving, Poultry Farm, Bed Workers working in etc. are more affected by this type of hapani* Seasonal asthma: -Seasonal asthma usually occurs in special seasons. For example, some people get asthma in hot weather, some people get asthma in certain flower gardens. Asthma also develops in trees, grasses, flower pollen, etc. * Silent asthma: This type of asthma attack is extremely frightening and life threatening. Attacks without any previous symptoms or with a light sound in the chest.

* Cough variant asthma: This type of asthma is prolonged and annoying cough.  Early symptoms of asthma patient:* Suffering from chronic cough, * Increased shortness of breath when exercising, ★ Common symptoms: * Increased shortness of breath in winter * Frequent breathing, * Coughing with phlegm, * Ringing in throat and feeling dry, * Coughing at night Going * pulse rate fast, * having trouble speaking, * always weaknessFeeling, * Body blue. Asthma patient should follow some advice: -1- Bed and pillow should be covered with plastic seat or special kind of cover should be put on the pillow. 2- Dust should not be scrubbed. - There needs to be an open environment with light and air, pollution free. This is because fungal spores in damp places often cause asthma. So you should understand the condition of your body and take the risk of hard work৬ - Light food should be eaten so that there is no difficulty in digestion. Because, indigestion and heartburn can also cause asthma. Foods that have allergies should be avoided. - If necessary, change the place and occupation. Fifty percent of such patients are well just by following the rules. Diet and diet of asthma patients.ঃ Asthma patient food: -1-Kusum hot food. 2- Seasonal fruits. 3- Goat`s milk (including bay leaves, mint and black cumin). 4- Iodized salt and sea salt. 5- Honey, soup, juice.

6-Black cumin oil: -Ginger mint tea. Foods that are forbidden for Hapani patients: -* Eggs: - Egg allergy is very common for asthma patients. The white part of the egg contains protein. This protein stimulates allergies and exacerbates asthma.

* Milk: - Milk contains a lot of calcium which makes bones and teeth strong. However, the protein in it multiplies the problem of asthma. * Almonds: - Experts claim that eating almonds also increases the risk of asthma. So refrain from eating nuts. * Wheat: - A protein called gluten in wheat increases asthma. As a result, it is difficult to breathe properlyPatients with shortness of breath have occasional shortness of breath. Concerns have been added to the problem at this time of the Corona epidemic. Because, in case of sudden onset of shortness of breath, it is difficult to understand at the initial stage what caused the onset of shortness of breath, corona infection, or chronic respiratory diseaseRefrigerated soft drinks 3-Ice cream, refrigerated food 4-Isubgul and gravy national food 5-Kachur Lati, Tita national food 6-Spinach and pui vegetables, masakalai, ground vegetables 6-Iron-rich tubewell water.

★ Asthma patient should also wear all kinds of clothes - 1-Cotton national loose-fitting clothes should be worn.

2- It is better not to wear silk, synthetic, woolen cloth. 3. You should sleep on thin pillow and soft bed.

 Asthma Causes: -

Extremely dry, hot or polluted, and water vapor is considered to be the cause. Hereditary AE disorder is one of the major causes of this disease. The disease can be caused by dust, body odor of the equine or the polluted air of the flower or by contact with the food. Inflammation of the lining of the nasal passages, enlargement of the nasal tumor tonsils, adenoids, increases the propensity to attack the disease.Homeopathy: According to homeopathy, three diseases are the cause of all kinds of diseases. Sora, psychosis, syphilis, sora-psychosis or sora-psychosis-syphilis are jointly responsible for asthmaThis mixed disease-seed of the present age is called by many as Tubercular Mayajam, for which an experienced physician Dr. K .According to Hahnemann`s Homoeopathic guidelines, if the treatment can be done by proper prescription, then the treatment of any complex difficult disease including asthma can be given by the grace of Allah if the person relies on a combination of individual vivic symptoms and metallic treatment. There is no such thing as eternal truth in medical science. Because once we heard that there is no cure for tuberculosis, now we hear that tuberculosis is good. All this is the result of the progress and development of science. Asthma treatment is the most popular treatment method in homeopathy. Homeopathic treatment is done by selecting medicines on the basis of overall symptoms. This is the only medical procedure by which all the signs and symptoms of the patient`s pain can be removed and the state of complete health can be restored. According to the 2016 data of BBC News, about 40% of the patients in the country get cured by taking homeopathic treatment, again lately many reputed homeopaths have come out, they are treating asthma patients with patent tonic, mixed pathologyHahnemann Sankar, a homeopath, says that patients need to keep in mind that asthma is not a common ailment, so patients with asthma must be careful and alert at this time.
