The cases of asthma disease are increasing every year in India. There is no cure for this disease. Only this can be controlled. Small children and the elderly suffer the most from asthma. Let us know about this disease from doctors.
According to the report of the World Health Organization, cases of asthma are increasing every year in India. This is a disease in which there can be difficulty in breathing. Patients of this disease suffer more from cough and chest tightness. There are misconceptions about asthma. People think that asthma occurs exclusively in childhood, but this disease can occur in adults also. There is no cure for this. Only the disease can be controlled. Bronchodilators and corticosteroids inhalers help control asthma. Meanwhile, it is also important to know whether the disease of asthma has become more dangerous since the Corona epidemic.
Doctors say that increasing pollution, bad eating habits and lack of knowledge about the symptoms of the disease are increasing the cases of asthma. People initially ignore this disease considering it to be a common problem, but later this disease keeps increasing. In severe cases, asthma can also cause problems in breathing. This disease can also occur due to genetic reasons. It is not necessary that children are its victims. People who live in dusty areas and have allergy problems can also become victims of this disease.
Why have asthma cases increased after Corona?
Dr. Ankit, in the Department of Critical Care and Medicine at Sharda Hospital, says that the Covid-19 pandemic has created unprecedented challenges for people suffering from asthma. During the Corona epidemic, asthma patients were not able to get their treatment, due to which their problems increased. There is no data on whether the cases of asthma have increased or decreased after Covid, but the increased mental stress during Corona has also increased the problems of asthma patients.
Pulmonologist Dr Pratibha Dogra says that it is not the case that asthma patients have increased after Covid. No relation between Covid and asthma has been understood yet, but if there is asthma then it gets triggered by any viral infection. That means, if the cases of any respiratory disease are increasing, then it has a direct impact on asthma patients also.
