Troublesome Seasonal Asthma

Troublesome Seasonal Asthma

Asthma is a respiratory condition that makes it difficult for one to breathe. During the spring, many people experience what is generally called seasonal or allergic asthma. When exposed to an allergen (in most cases pollen), the airways begin to inflame, thus making it hard to breathe.

People who suffer from allergic asthma also tend to experience symptoms of hay fever. This can include: watery eyes, sneezing, runny nose, and an itchy throat. In general, symptoms of seasonal asthma are irritating and can seem quite random at times.

How do I know if I have seasonal asthma?

  • Wheezing
  • Coughing constantly
  • Tightness in the chest
  • Breathing faster than normal
  • Loss of breath easily

The recommend medication for this condition is a steroid inhaler. Steroid inhalers work by preventing inflammation and swelling aroused by the allergen. Flovent is a popular choice and is commonly used to help relieve symptoms. This type of medication is most effective when used on a daily basis.

In recent studies, it was found that children, who are exposed to certain bacteria at an earlier age, have less risk of developing asthma as they grow older. One particular study also compared children who lived in rural areas as opposed to urban areas. Children living in rural areas are exposed to more microbes and thus have a lower risk of developing asthma. In fact, there is almost a linear relationship between exposure to microbes and if asthma occurs.
