Asthma & Allergy
Homeopathy has a vital role in the treatment of allergy as the conventional treatment can’t cure most of the allergies. Homeopathic medicines stimulate immune system and significantly reduce sensitivity to allergy triggers and reduce allergic response. Individualized prescription of homeopathic medicines helps to bring out cure in allergy and asthma.
Homeopathic medicines help to uproot the cause and help to eliminate the recurrent episodes completely.
Allergies are exaggerated reaction of the immune system to something, which usually is harmless to most people such as plant pollen, dust mites, molds, insect stings or food, in the environment.
The immune system overreacts to the allergen by producing Immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies, which travel to cells that release histamine and other chemicals, causing an allergic reaction.
Allergy can develop at any age. You might be more likely to develop an allergy if you have a family history of asthma or hay fever or eczema (atopic dermatitis).
Severity may vary from mild allergic reactions to life threatening anaphylaxis.
An allergic reaction may typically triggers symptoms in the nose, lungs, throat, sinuses, ears, lining of the stomach or on the skin and causes a number of medical conditions.
The most common allergic diseases include hay fever (allergic rhinitis), asthma, urticaria (hives), food allergies, seasonal allergies and pet allergies.
Symptoms depends on the what caused allergy and most common symptoms include
Itching of the nose, eyes or roof of the mouth
Sneezing,
Nasal congestion(runny, stuffy nose),
Wheezing,
Itching or hives all over the body
Rash
Anaphylaxis
Asthma is a very common condition affecting five per cent of the population at one stage of life.
In asthma, the bronchial inflammation causes bronchial tubes narrow, and produces more mucus which makes it more difficult to breathe. Symptoms vary from person to person. Symptoms that occur in asthma are
Chest tightness,
Coughing,
Wheezing,
Shortness of breath.
The signs and symptoms may get flare-ups.
The exact cause remains unclear but it probably due to a combination of environmental and genetic (inherited) factors.
Allergy-induced asthma - Triggered by exposure to an allergen (ragweed, pollen, animal dander or dust mites),
Occupational asthma - Due to irritants in the air (smoke, chemical fumes or strong odors, gas)
May get worse in extreme weather conditions.
Exercise - Induced asthma
Strong emotions and stress
Conventionally, Asthma treatment can vary from inhalers to oral medications to drugs delivered in a nebulizer and which aims only at reducing inflammation than the cure.
