Asthma diagnosis

A good homeopathy doctor first tries to arrive at the diagnosis of your asthmatic and chest complaints. He will do this in 3 ways as follows: –

  1. By listening to the symptoms of the patient
  2. By examining the patient for various signs
  3. By advising investigations when required

Asthmatic attack symptoms –

The patient will complain of the following symptoms to the treating physician:-

  1. Cough – it is dry, to begin with, and later becomes wet. Patients often complain of mild to severe cough when exposed to triggers. Triggers like dust, smoke, pollen, etc. excite cold, cough, and dyspnea.
  2. Cough in asthmatic may also start when talking loud, singing, giving a lecture, etc.
  3. Difficulty in breathing – This can be mild, moderate, or severe. You may experience breathlessness on running or walking fast, slow, or a few meters to a few steps.
  4. Feeling suffocated is often complained about by patients. It occurs due to obstruction in the airways.
  5. Wheeze – A sound resembling a whistle is heard. It occurs due to spasms in the airways.
  6. Getting tired by running or walking a short distance.

Symptoms of severe asthmatic attack

  • In severe cases who consult us, even talking is difficult.
  • If the severity worsens there is an inability to lie down with breathlessness.
  • In severe acute cases, the muscles of breathing over the neck, abdomen, and nasal wings move very fast.

In our homeopathic clinic for asthma in Mumbai, India, patients often complain that- “I must sit up in bed in a bending position for easy breathing”.

Diagnostic signs of asthmatic attack–

A good homeopathy doctor for asthma treatment may also examine your chest. He will look out for these signs in your chest:-

  1. A whistling sound called a ‘wheeze’ is heard when the stethoscope is applied to the chest.
  2. In an asthmatic child and severe cases, this wheeze and rattling can be heard even without a stethoscope.
  3. The rate of breathing and pulse becomes faster.

Many of these signs and symptoms are enough to diagnose a case. As a homeopath, we may begin your medication for asthmatic cough and breathlessness with a provisional diagnosis. Knowing your symptoms may be enough in some cases to give you a medicine. Investigations are advised only to confirm the diagnosis and later for prognosis.

Investigations advised by a homeopath in an asthmatic

In some cases, symptoms are few. Such cases need to be investigated. The following investigations may be advised by our homeopathy doctor for asthma treatment in the Mumbai clinic:-

  • CBC – This can help a chest specialist to differentiate allergic from non-allergic cases. It also gives the homeopath a clue about the presence of an acute infection or allergy.
  • Lung function test (LFT) – This test is very important in patients with respiratory diseases. Dr. Mehta’s homeopathic clinic in Andheri has an in-house facility for Lung function testing. This helps in confirming the diagnosis. It also helps in differentiating it from COPD and other lung diseases like fibrosis.
  • Peak expiratory flow rate
  • X-ray chest – It is generally normal in asthmatics. It is only recommended unless there is a fever, or the diagnosis is unclear. X-ray is advised if the physician suspects an infection, bronchitis, or other lung diseases.
  • Allergy testing – It is done in patients where a particular allergen is suspected. But if the list of your allergy is long like dust, mite, cold, smoke, etc., it is wise to start therapy by consulting a homeopath. Testing for different allergies may prove cumbersome and less rewarding.
  • Sputum test – Sputum test is only done in the clinic when the chest doctor is suspecting some other cause.

Many patients consult the homeopathy doctor for asthma treatment with a diagnosis in hand. Such patients may not need all the investigations.

Consult Dr. Mehta for your breathing problems

What happens to your respiratory tract if you are an asthmatic?

If you are an asthmatic patient, the following is the state of your respiratory tract and chest –

Airways have become over-sensitive and over-responsive – What it means? Simply put, your respiratory tubes are sensitive to even a slight stimulation. On stimulation, the respiratory tubes react and squeeze more than required.

For example – exposure to dust, pollen or smoke may cause cough, and cold and then make you breathless.

Your airways are inflamed – The airways become red, swollen, and blocked with mucus. So you start coughing with the sound of mucus in the chest. The air will not flow easily and smoothly in the respiratory tubes.

Obstruction of respiration –There is squeezing of your respiratory tubes. Your airways become narrow & blocked. Your lungs do not receive the required Oxygen for the proper functioning of the body. Carbon dioxide is not expired and keeps accumulating in the blood. You will now have breathlessness, suffocation, and choking. When you breathe, a sound called ‘wheeze’ may be heard. It is due to air passing from the narrow airways of the asthmatic chest.

Weakness of chest muscles – As time passes, the muscles of the chest become weak. Weakness is due to the over-exertion of muscles for breathing. Many also develop mouth breathing. So air enters the stomach and you may have symptoms of bloating, gas, or indigestion.
