Asthma - How Homeopathy Can Treat It?

Asthma is a severe respiratory disease, which occurs due to the inflammation of the airways of lungs. The airways of the lungs get swollen due to the inflammation, which causes production of mucus. Due to the effect of excessive mucus and swelling, the air path gets hindered. In such a condition, breathing becomes difficult and a wheezing sound appears at the time of breathing. Usually, the patient coughs very often.

These are the common symptoms of asthma:

• Breathlessness
• Whistling sound while breathing
• Wheezing in chest
• Mucus-producing cough
• Tightness and heaviness in breathing
• Heaviness in the chest while running, walking or performing any activity
