Asthma and change of weather
Asthma is a chronic illness of the airways that produces breathing difficulty. With respiratory disorder, there's inflammation of the air passages that results in narrowing of the
airways that carry oxygen to
the lungs. This leads to respiratory
disorder symptoms, together
with coughing, wheezing,
shortness of breath, and chest tightness.
Common kinds of Asthma and their causes
1. Adult-Onset Asthma.
People who are allergic
to cats might have an increased risk for developing the adult-onset respiratory disorder. Exposure to allergens or irritants like cigarette smoke, chemicals, mold, dust, or different substances usually found in the person's surroundings may cause the main respiratory disorder symptoms
in an adult.
2. Allergic Asthma.
Exposure to
numerous irritants and substances that cause allergies (allergens) can cause
signs and symptoms of asthma. Flying substances, like pollen,
dust mites, mold spores,
pet dander or particles of cockroach waste.
3. Asthma-COPD Overlap.
Asthma-COPD overlap comes about when you have
symptoms of both asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). These both lung problems make breathing difficult. But in other ways, they're
different.
For example, asthma gets better.
Symptoms can be controlled, and you may be symptom-free for a long time. With COPD, symptoms are persistent
and get worse over time, even with treatment. And the diseases are caused by
different things.
4. Exercise-Induced
Bronchoconstriction (EIB)
If someone experiences wheezing, coughing, or shortness of breath
with exercise, He has exercise-induced bronchoconstriction or asthma.
5. None
allergic asthma
Non-allergic asthma is triggered by factors other than allergens. These
can include:
- Viral
respiratory infections
- Exercise
- Irritants
in the air
- Stress
- Drugs and
certain food additives
- Weather
conditions
6. Occupational asthma
Occupational
asthma is caused by breathing in chemical fumes, gases, dust
or other substances on the job. Occupational
asthma can result
from exposure to a substance you're sensitive to or to an irritating toxic
substance. It can cause an allergic or immunological response.
