Asthma treatment :

  • For the treatment of asthma, the patient’s degree of asthma must be evaluated through the symptoms and the frequency of attacks at night and day and their effect on daily life. There are treatments taken in the event of an asthma attack and treatments are taken continuously to prevent attacks of chest tightness and difficulty breathing, among the drugs that are used in the event of the attack, are short-term beta-2 stimulants such as albuterol, which expands the bronchi within minutes, and ipratropium, which expands the airways by relaxing muscles in the airways, and intravenous or oral corticosteroids such as prednisone which works as an anti-inflammatory in the airways. Long-term control of disease, such as corticosteroid sprays such as fluticasone, which works to reduce inflammation in the airways, long-term beta-2 agonists such as salmeterol that expand the airways, and leukotriene modifiers such as montelukast, in your case, if the symptoms worsen you need to consult your doctor to change the treatment plan and add more potent drugs to control the symptoms

Diagnosis:

  • Diagnosis is made based on the history, symptoms, severity, and frequency of them, then clinical examination, and some tests, such as spirometry, which measures the amount of air that can be expelled by exhaling after taking a deep inhale, checking the peak airflow meter and the functional performance of the lungs before and after the use of a bronchodilator, In the event that the diagnosis is not clear, methacholine is used to narrow the airways, and if the result is positive, it confirms the injury, a chest x-ray, and CT scan, and sensitivity test to determine the factors that trigger the start of an asthma attack in the patient

Asthma symptoms:

These symptoms come in the form of attacks, and then the patient returns to his normal state, and the symptoms are as follows:
  • Shortness of breath
  • Chest pain
  • A whistling sound when breathing
