Asthma ஆஸ்துமா

Definition

Asthma is a disease that causes the airways of the lungs to swell and narrow, leading to wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and coughing.

Alternative Names

Bronchial asthma

Causes (காரணங்கள்)

Asthma is caused by inflammation (swelling) in the airways. When an asthma attack occurs, the lining of the air passages swells and the muscles surrounding the airways become tight. This reduces the amount of air that can pass through the airway.

In persons who have sensitive airways, asthma symptoms can be triggered by breathing in substances called allergens or triggers.

Common asthma triggers include:

·         Animals (pet hair or dander- செல்ல பிராணிகளின் சீற்றம் மற்றும் முடிகள்))

·         Dust mites (தூசி பூச்சிகள்)

·         Certain medicines (குறிப்பிட்ட இயந்திரங்கள்)(aspirin and other NSAIDS)

·         Changes in weather (வானிலை மாற்றங்கள்) (most often cold weather)

·         Chemicals in the air or in food (கெமிக்கல்ஸ் நிறைந்த காற்று அல்லது உணவு)

·         Exercise (உடற்பயிற்சி)

·         Mold (அச்சு)

·         Pollen (மகரந்தம்)

·         Respiratory infections, such as the common cold (சாதாரணமான ஜலதோஷம் போன்ற சுவாச நோய்)

·         Strong emotions (stress)(மன அழுத்தம்)

·         Tobacco smoke  (புகையிலை மற்றும் புகைபிடித்தல்)

Symptoms(அறிகுறிகள்)

Most people with asthma have attacks separated by symptom-free periods. Some people have long-term shortness of breath with episodes of increased shortness of breath. Either wheezing or a cough may be the main symptom.

Asthma attacks can last for minutes to days, and can become dangerous if the airflow is severely blocked.

Symptoms include:

·         Cough with or without sputum (phlegm-கபம்) production (சளி அல்லது சளியில்லாமல் இருமல்)

·         Extreme difficulty breathing (சுவாசிப்பது மிகவும் கடினமாக இருக்கும்)

·         Rapid pulse (வேகமான துடிப்பு)

Other symptoms that may occur:

·         Breathing temporarily stops (சுவாசம் தற்காலிகமாக நிறுத்தப்படும்)

·         Chest pain (மார்பு வலி)

·         Tightness in the chest (மார்பு இறுக்கம்)

Exams and Tests (பரிசோதனை)

·         Skin (தோல்)

Treatment (சிகிச்சை)

The goals of treatment are:

·         Stay away from substances that trigger your symptoms (அறிகுறிகளைத் தூண்டக்கூடிய பொருட்களில் இருந்து விலகி இருங்கள்)

·         Help you to be able to do normal activities without asthma symptoms (ஆஸ்துமா அறிகுறிகள் இல்லாமல் சாதாரண நடவடிக்கைகள் செய்வதற்கான உதவி)

You and your doctor should work as a team to manage your asthma. Follow your doctor's instructions on taking medicines, eliminating asthma triggers, and monitoring symptoms.

The complications of asthma can be severe, and may include:

·         Decreased ability to exercise and take part in other activities (உடற்பயிற்சி மற்றும் மற்ற நடவடிக்கைகளில் பங்கேற்க திறன் குறைதல்)

·         Lack of sleep due to nighttime symptoms (இரவுநேர அறிகுறிகள் காரணமாக தூக்கம் இன்மை)

·         Permanent changes in the function of the lungs (நுரையீரல் செயல்பாடுகளில் நிரந்தர மாற்றம்)

·         Persistent cough (நீடித்த இருமல்)

·         Trouble breathing that requires breathing assistance (ventilator) (சுவாசிப்பதில் சிரமம் என்பதால் உதவி தேவைப்படுகின்றது)

Prevention (தடுப்புமுறைகள்)

You can reduce asthma symptoms by avoiding triggers and substances that irritate the airways.

·         Cover bedding with allergy-proof casings to reduce exposure to dust mites.

·         Remove carpets from bedrooms and vacuum regularly.

·         Use only unscented detergents and cleaning materials in the home.

·         Keep humidity levels low and fix leaks to reduce the growth of organisms such as mold.

·         Keep the house clean and keep food in containers and out of bedrooms. This helps reduce the possibility of cockroaches. Body parts and droppings from cockroaches can trigger asthma attacks in some people.

·         If a person is allergic to an animal that cannot be removed from the home, the animal should be kept out of the bedroom. Place filtering material over the heating outlets to trap animal dander. Change the filter in furnaces and air conditioners often.

·         Eliminate tobacco smoke from the home. This is the single most important thing a family can do to help someone with asthma. Smoking outside the house is not enough. Family members and visitors who smoke outside carry smoke residue inside on their clothes and hair. This can trigger asthma symptoms. If you smoke, now is a good time to quit.

·         Avoid air pollution, industrial dust, and irritating fumes as much as possible.
