Patient's question:
Grandpa has had asthma for two years. In these two years, he has taken a lot of medicine, but the effect has always not been very good. Recently, Grandpa has also lost a lot of weight. I want to know what are the hazards of asthma?Doctor's answer:
Q&A: First, asthma can cause patients to suffer from many distressing symptoms, such as coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath. If not managed properly, these symptoms can also pose certain risks to the patient. Second, if asthma is not controlled or treated properly, it can trigger various chronic lung diseases, such as emphysema and cor pulmonale, which can bring even greater harm to the patient.Guidance and Recommendations: Asthma is a relatively chronic condition, and there is currently no method to completely cure it. However, persistent and continuous treatment is the best way to control asthma. However, as the patient ages and their body's drug resistance increases, the effectiveness may decrease. Therefore, it is recommended that you consider trying traditional Chinese medicine treatment to further reduce the harm of asthma and allow the patient to live without being troubled by the disease.
