Symptoms of asthma attack

summary

Asthma is a very common respiratory disease. If it doesn't happen, it's no different from normal people's. But if the respiratory tract is stimulated or inhaled pollen, it can induce asthma, and the pain to patients is very big, Let's introduce the specific symptoms of asthma.

Symptoms of asthma attack

The main symptoms of asthma attack are: first of all, a few minutes before asthma attack, there are often allergic symptoms, such as itchy nose, itchy eyes, sneezing, runny nose, tears and dry cough. These manifestations are called premonitory symptoms. Then, chest tightness appeared immediately, and the pressure in the chest was as pressing as a heavy stone. After about 10 minutes, it was difficult to exhale. At this time, the patient could even hear the "asthma sound" without using the doctor's stethoscope. The patient was forced to sit upright with his head stretched forward, his shoulders shrugged, his hands propped up and gasped. Such attacks can last for tens of minutes to half an hour, and can be relieved by themselves or by treatment.

Sometimes asthma starts without symptoms. Some asthma attacks last for more than a few days, often because of extreme difficulty in breathing and suffocation, often due to heart failure, physical weakness and death. Other asthma symptoms are not typical, such as long-term repeated dry cough, itchy throat, chest tightness and discomfort. General anti-inflammatory and antitussive treatment is ineffective. It should be thought that it may not be typical asthma, and it is often relieved by antiasthmatic treatment.

Asthma itself is not easy to treat, it can also cause many other diseases, it can cause spontaneous pneumothorax, pulmonary infection, respiratory failure, chronic bronchitis, emphysema, pulmonary heart disease and so on.
