Asthma is a chronic condition in your lungs which is comprised of two main factors: constriction, caused by a tightening of the muscles surrounding the air ways and inflammation, resulting from the irritation and swelling of the bronchi.
The result is a narrowing of the airways which may produce symptoms such as shortness of breath, wheezing, coughing and tightness in the chest.
The most common forms of Medical treatment for Asthma involve the use of inhalers.
Reliever Inhaler – contain bronchodilator drugs and can be used to relieve symptoms when you are feeling breathless, tight chested or wheezy. These kinds of drugs relax the muscles surrounding the airways.
Preventer Inhaler – usually contain a steroid drug and are used as a means of preventing symptoms of Asthma occurring. The steroids work by reducing the inflammation of the inside of the airways.
Both types of inhalers are simple to use and provide rapid relief of symptoms, however they are pharmaceutical drugs which are associated with side effects in addition to their therapeutic effects. These medical treatments for Asthma only target the symptoms to provide temporary relief, but they do not restore the body’s own defense mechanisms.
