Interpretation of TCM
Asthma (asthma for short) is a kind of disease, which mostly occurs in childhood or adolescence, and is induced by climate change, excessive fatigue, improper diet, inadaptability to life and other factors. Generally speaking, autumn and winter are the most prone to disease, followed by summer, which can be alleviated, and some of them recur all the year round. Dyspnea, prolonged exhalation, accompanied by wheezing, coughing, mucus-like or thin sputum, which is not suitable for vomiting. It must wait until the sputum is coughed up to temporarily calm down, but suddenly it begins to attack again, lasting for several minutes, hours or days at a time, making the patient very painful.
According to the different attack periods, asthma can be divided into cold asthma and heat asthma, which must be treated differently:
1. Cold wheezing
Generally, it is caused by cold phlegm retention and lung failure. The main symptoms are: at first, aversion to cold, fever, anhidrosis, headache, itchy nose, runny nose, cough and shortness of breath, followed by boredom of chest and diaphragm, aggravation of asthma, wheezing in pharynx, cough and vomiting; Thin phlegm, unable to lie down, prone on Fang Shu, pale or bluish gray face, cold back. In treatment, Zhang Lao often uses Xiaoqinglong decoction to add and subtract.
Comprises 5 grams of ephedra, 5 grams of cassia twig, 3 grams of asarum, 9 grams of perilla, 9 grams of almond (peeled tip), 9 grams of aster, 9 grams of Pinellia ternata and 3 grams of licorice.
Decoct two juices in water and take it in the afternoon.
3 grams of dried ginger is added to those with thin and white phlegm; For patients with cough, asthma and hyperhidrosis, add 3 grams of Schisandra chinensis; If the sputum in the throat sounds like chicken, add 5 grams and shoot dry.
2. Hot wheezing
Generally, it is caused by heat phlegm and lung failure. The main symptoms are: fever, sweating, headache, shortness of breath, wheezing in the throat, chest height and thickness, mouth opening and shoulders lifting, inability to lie flat, cough, yellow phlegm, difficulty in expectoration, red face and boredom, thirst and thirst, and red tongue. In treatment, Zhang Lao used Dingchuan decoction to add and subtract.
It consists of 5 grams of Herba Ephedrae, 9 grams of almond (peeled tip), 9 grams of perilla, 0/5 gram of Cortex Mori/kloc-,9 grams of Flos Farfarae, 9 grams of Pinellia ternata, 9 grams of Scutellariae Radix and 3 grams of Glycyrrhiza uralensis.
Decoct two juices in water and take it in the afternoon.
Add 9 grams of earthworm and 9 grams (bag) of lone vegetable to add or subtract asthma drama; Cough is very serious, such as 9 grams of shellfish and 9 grams of peucedanum; 30g of houttuynia cordata and 30g of winter melon seeds are added into the sputum; If phlegm-heat obstructs the airway and the patient is short of breath, take Monkey Jujube Powder twice a day, 0.3g each time, with warm water.
While taking the decoction, it can also be combined with the white mustard seed coating method, and the effect will be better:
1.
Acupuncture is suitable for empirical study. The commonly used acupoints are Dazhui, Shen Zhu, Fengmen, Shu Fei, Fenglong, Zhongshan, Quchi, Hegu, Waiguan, Shangyang and thenar.

Healthy echo wall
Matters needing attention in patients' daily life
1. Flowers, grass, carpets and other items are prohibited in the living room, and pets such as cats, dogs and birds are prohibited.
2. Avoid foods that induce asthma, such as fish, shrimp, fat, leeks and sweet potatoes.
3. Eat more fresh fruits, as well as lean meat, animal liver and tofu.
4. Avoid contact with * * * gas, smoke, dust and lampblack, and must quit smoking.
5. Avoid being too nervous and intense.
6. avoid catching a cold and.
7. Look for allergens and avoid contact with allergens.
8. Strengthen your strength and take a deep breath.
9. Prepare fast and effective anti-asthma drugs when going out to prevent being caught off guard when an accident occurs.
Beware of winter magic
How to prevent winter? Here are eight ways to prevent bronchial asthma and stay away from it.
Allergen free
It is an important measure to find out allergens as much as possible and avoid contact. If you know that taking certain drugs and foods will induce asthma, you can't take them in the future.
If the allergen is infection or intestinal parasitic disease, infection and parasitic disease should be prevented. Some allergens, such as dust and dust mites, are hard to avoid, but try to inhale. For example, bedding should be washed frequently, and the room should be kept clean and ventilated. For people with allergies, you can take off flowers and trees and try to avoid contact during flowering.
desensitization treatment
Desensitization therapy is a specific immunotherapy, which is suitable for allergic asthma. Its principle is that repeated injection of low-dose allergens can produce blocking antibody IgG in human body, reduce the production of specific IgG and consolidate mast cells or basophilic cell membranes.
appropriate
You should take part in appropriate sports activities during the remission period. Such as Qigong, Tai Ji Chuan, walking, running, swimming, medical gymnastics, breathing training, etc. If we can persist for a long time, we can reduce the incidence.
Application of vaccine
Asthma vaccine is mainly used for patients with endogenous asthma induced by bacterial or viral infection in respiratory tract every time. It is a non-specific immunotherapy, which can improve the phagocytic function of macrophages and increase the disease resistance of human body.
Commonly used triple (A, Staphylococcus albus, Neisseria) vaccine. It usually takes 2 months to take effect. Therefore, for patients with seasonal onset, the initial dose is 0. 1 ~ 2 times per week from two months before the onset season, and then it is increased by 0. 1 ~ 0.2 ml every time until 1ml is the maintenance amount,15. For regular authors, it can be used all year round.
Application of sodium cromoglycate
Sodium cromoglycate is an effective drug to prevent asthma attack, which can increase the cell membrane of mast cells and reduce the degranulation of mast cells. It can be used to prevent exogenous, endogenous and asthma attacks, and generally has a good effect on exogenous.
Adjust and stabilize one's emotions
Stabilizing mental mood has certain preventive effect on asthma. Therefore, patients should enhance their confidence in victory, eliminate nervousness and avoid mental unhealthy. Participating in cultural and sports activities can adjust the tension and have a good effect on asthma.
Application of ketotifen
A new drug for preventing and treating type I allergic reaction is stronger than cromoglycate disodium, which is mainly used for treating asthma caused by exogenous factors, exercise and aspirin.
Clodemisone dipropionate aerosol
Clodemisone dipropionate aerosol is a powerful hormone with strong local anti-inflammatory effect, which may almost cause mold infection.
Small details that can't be ignored in preventing asthma
It is understood that the recurrence rate of childhood asthma is as high as over 60% every winter, which not only causes physical and mental pain to patients, but also can be life-threatening in severe cases. Experts remind people that to prevent the recurrence of asthma, we should start with the details, especially now that the temperature changes greatly, so we need to pay more attention to some details.
Get more sunshine.
New discovery of Australian scientists: sunlight can effectively prevent and relieve asthma symptoms.
Therefore, asthma patients can take appropriate outdoor activities and get more sunshine in their spare time. Can prevent and relieve asthma symptoms.
Pay attention to window ventilation.
Indoor environmental pollution caused by decoration has become a new inducement of bronchial asthma in winter. While keeping warm, we should pay attention to opening windows and ventilation to keep the indoor air fresh. Try to keep the furniture simple and tidy, use less tapestries and carpets, try to use new cotton quilts and mattresses, and avoid using silk cotton, fur and down as bedding or pillow cores, especially don't keep small animals such as dogs, cats and birds.
Patients with a history of asthma must maintain a certain temperature and humidity in the bedroom, especially at night. Asthma often occurs at night, so the patient's bedroom should not only maintain a certain temperature and humidity, but also maintain air circulation.
Clothes should keep warm and cold.
Underwear should be made of pure cotton, smooth, soft and flat. Avoid wearing clothes dyed with chemical fiber or dark dyes. Asthmatics pay more attention to keeping warm than ordinary people, but they can't keep warm too much. Too hot can easily lead to asthma attacks.
Adjust the diet scientifically.
If patients try to find themselves allergic to a certain food, they should try to avoid eating it. Wheat, eggs, milk, tomatoes, fresh marine fish, shrimps, crabs, etc. Can cause asthma. Eat more fruits and keep defecation unobstructed. Some, such as radish and towel gourd, have the functions of reducing qi, resolving phlegm and clearing lung heat, which is very beneficial to asthma patients. Drinking more water is very important for asthma patients.
Pay proper attention to exercise.
It is necessary for asthma patients to take cold-resistant exercise, which is an effective way to prevent asthma attacks. The purpose of cold-resistant exercise is to make the human body gradually adapt to the cold, and these exercises that gradually adapt to the cold can be effective.
In addition, you should avoid eating foods that can lead to asthma attacks, such as fresh sea fish, shrimps and crabs. At the same time, patients should eat less flatulence and indigestible foods, such as beans, potatoes and sweet potatoes. Avoid oppressing the chest and aggravating breathing difficulties. Chinese medicine believes that water chestnut, white radish, walnut kernel, red date, Euryale euryale seed, lotus seed and yam have the effects of invigorating spleen and resolving phlegm, benefiting kidney and nourishing lung, which can prevent asthma attack to some extent and can be eaten properly.
Asthma patients should carry drugs to relieve asthma attacks with them. In the case of acute asthma attack, they should keep calm, avoid mental stress and minimize activities to reduce the burden. Family members of patients should quickly prepare drugs and inhalants for patients when they have an attack, and help patients to apply drugs that can quickly relieve symptoms; To help patients find the most suitable position to lean on their bodies, it is best to let them sit up, lean forward slightly and let them breathe heavily; Try to reduce patients' anxiety and let them relax.
10 Various foods
Food is one of the important reasons for inducing food. According to relevant data, the incidence of food allergy is about 1% ~ 2%, and the incidence of asthma in patients with food allergy is about 6.8% ~ 17%. Its pathogenesis is not very clear, and it is estimated that it is mainly related to the individual specificity of patients. Therefore, although hundreds of foods are known to induce asthma, these foods are not high in the population, so there is no need to worry too much, let alone give up eating because of suffocation.
According to the research of medical scientists at home and abroad, the common foods that induce food allergic asthma are the following 10:
1. milk
The incidence of allergic asthma in children caused by milk is the highest in dairy products. Milk contains two components, namely, A, B whey protein and casein, of which A whey protein is the strongest allergen among all milk components. Although the sensitization of protein can be obviously weakened after heating treatment, it is still a strong allergen for people with high milk allergy, which can induce asthma attacks. Therefore, for babies who need breastfeeding, we should actively advocate to reduce the chance of allergic asthma caused by breastfeeding.
(hen's) egg
There are many cases induced by eggs, and a few cases are allergic asthma. Experts pointed out that if you only eat egg yolk instead of egg white, you can reduce the incidence of asthma. This is because egg protein in egg white is the main allergen to induce allergy, while egg yolk does not contain egg protein, so it rarely causes allergy.
3. Seafood and aquatic products
The allergens of these foods are usually heat-resistant, and their cooked food often induces allergic asthma, especially eating stale seafood will obviously increase the incidence of allergic asthma. Therefore, all kinds of seafood and aquatic products, such as fish, shrimp, crab, mussel and shellfish, should be eaten fresh.
4. Oil crops such as peanuts, sesame seeds and cottonseed.
It is mainly related to the high content of protein in this kind of food, especially raw food is easy to induce allergic asthma. However, studies have shown that these foods rarely induce allergic symptoms after being processed into oil products. Therefore, this kind of food should not be eaten raw, but should be fried, boiled or processed before eating to reduce the occurrence of allergic asthma.
5. beans
At present, it is confirmed that beans such as soybean, mung bean, red bean, black bean, kidney bean and mung bean can also induce allergic asthma symptoms, which is also related to the high content of protein in beans. After frying and cooking, its allergenicity is reduced, and it should be fully processed before eating.
6. Wheat and cereals rarely induce food allergic asthma.
However, it has been reported abroad that the incidence of asthma among bakers who often come into contact with this kind of food is high, which is also called baker asthma. It may be caused by patients' frequent contact with flour, especially flour stored for a long time. So flour is not easy to store for long.
7. fruit
A few fruits may induce allergic asthma, such as peaches, apples, bananas, strawberries, cherries and coconuts. Although it is only a few cases, it should be.
8. Vegetables
The incidence of allergic asthma is very low. Occasionally eating mushrooms, tomatoes, peppers, leeks, eggplant, cabbage, garlic, Toona sinensis and bracken can induce asthma attacks, among which Toona sinensis and bracken are more.
9. Meat
More common are beef, mutton, pork, chicken, nail fish, poultry and so on.
10. Others
For example, nuts such as pistachios and pecans, drinks and wines such as coffee and beer, and products made of pollen. Cases of allergic asthma caused by these foods can also be seen.
At present, it is known that the above foods are closely related to food allergic asthma, but it is not easy to determine which food causes asthma. In addition to the necessary allergen skin test, we should also closely combine the allergic history, family history and related medical history to make a diagnosis. If once diagnosed, we must strictly fast this allergic food and take preventive measures.
Tips: When winter comes, asthma patients should pay attention to keep warm, go to crowded places less and pay attention to indoor ventilation.
