During pregnancy many changes occurring hormone and, in parallel, many women also reported changes in their asthmatic disease: for most of them asthma improves, not to give up more disturbances in a few cases, however, reportedly worsening.

In the latter case there is a clear indication to adjust drug therapy in order to obtain a good control of respiratory function: So, do not worry about taking medicines needed thinking that might hurt the fetus: the child will stay course better if the mother breathes well! Moreover, it is almost always to use drugs in spray formulation, which are safe for the fetus.

The food intolerance are “not allergic allergies.” This definition dates back to 1991, when the allergy Kaplan presented his article that described the existence of states that allergy was not possible to correlate immunoglobulin E (IgE). So the first thing to understand is that traditional allergy and food intolerance are not the same thing.
If a substance to which it is intolerant reaches the body’s defenses (white blood cells, particularly lymphocytes) are diverted from their normal duties to deal all aggressore, thus creating a decrease in general immune defenses.

Asthma is the clinical syndrome characterized by generalized reduction, variable and reversible] of size of the bronchi, with crises of paroxysmal dyspnea, expiratory rales and sibilant.

Paroxysmal dyspnea is the consequence of three factors, which induce bronhostenoza: bronchial mucosal edema, hypersecretion and spasm. The first two components are fixed, the last is labile.

Pathological anatomy reveals terminal bronchi blocked by mucus cells and smooth muscles calciforme many hypertrophied.

Symptoms
The crisis usually occurs in the second half of the night, often violently, with dyspnea and restlessness, itching and hypersecretion;sometimes it is announced by sneezing, tearing, itching of the eyelids, headache.

Dyspnea becomes paroxysmal , with prolonged expiration and wheezing.

The patient remains in bed or is running to the window for air hunger prey. Usually stay seated with his head back and leaning on hands, eyes injected, nostrils dilated and with jugular turgid.

Evolution is long, variable and capricious. Pure form occurs in children and tends to decrease at puberty.

Asthma responds to a wide range of preparations and procedures. The general treatment has been exposed to chronic bronchitis. In this disease, preventive measures are very important. The first action aimed at combating smoking and smoke cigarette inhalation .

Hair, dander from people and animals, fibers, fungus spores, bacteria, housedust-mites, combining together, produce housedust. Each household has its own mixture of housedust. This is also the case with the presence of housedust-mites. The infestation of mites in a household has nothing to do with a lack of cleanliness!

Mites transmit no illnesses. They are 0.3 mm long, harmless, spider-like animals that require a humid, warm environment to survive. They derive nourishment from human and animal dander.

They thrive when there is both high humidity and molds simultaneously. Molds especially thrive on natural fibers, but they can also survive on artificial fibers. If their environment is no longer hospitable, they burrow deeper into mattresses, upholstery, fur, and carpet. They then reproduce more slowly.

An allergy to dust-mites can be proved by skin and blood tests. The real villain, the allergen of the mite, is in the excrement, which is swirled into the air and inhaled. Given a corresponding susceptibility, allergic reactions will develop in the nose, the lungs, and by direct contact with the skin and show up as chronic colds, asthma or neurodermitis.
