Natural Cures for Asthma

Author Information

by admin last modified 2010-02-17 10:38

People with Asthma MUST have proper mainstream medical supervision, in addition to any complementary approach.

Asthma is a very common condition in which the airway in the lungs tightens up, making breathing out very difficult. This causes a distressing wheeze and rapid breathing and needs prompt mainstream medical attention in order to prevent an inadequate supply of oxygen to the body causing it permanent damage. It needs a proper diagnosis to be made before any treatment is contemplated and you should consult your doctor if you suspect you have asthma.


Asthma Treatments

Modern Western Medicine

Asthma is largely controlled with inhaled drugs of two main types, steroids such as Becotide and drugs to relax the breathing tubes such as Ventolin. There are other types of treatments. They all need careful medical supervision and regular review.
