Causes & Diagnosis of Diseases :

Asthma

Asthma can be of many types but the most common variety is bronchial asthma known as tamaka swasa in Ayurveda. In most case, either at the beginning of the disease or before each attack, the patient suffers from indigestion, or even diarrhoea. In Ayurveda, asthma is supposed to originate from an affliction of the stomach and other parts of the gastro-intestinal tract. The seat of manifestation is the lungs though the pressure causes the heart to get involved. Nasal congestion, even obstruction and sneezing are experienced before an attack of asthma. In Ayurveda, therefore, both for the prevention and cure of bronchial asthma, primary attention is given to the stomach, bowels, nose and lungs. Simultaneously, in chronic cases, care is taken to strengthen the heart.
