We often hear a
lot of opinions or myths about asthma in children. There are indeed medically
correct, but most are not right that an incorrect understanding of asthma.
Following a review with discussion of the truth of the myth.
Asthma is an infectious disease
Not true. Communicable disease is disease caused by the entry of germs into the body and can be transmitted to another person. Asthma is not a contagious disease so that people with asthma do not need to be shunned.
Asthma is a hereditary disease
It is true that parents often found that children with asthma and also suffer
from asthma, but does not always happen that way. Sometimes a parent with
asthma, children are not or vice versa. Asthma is one of the manifestations of
allergic disease. The nature of these allergies are inherited from parent to
offspring, but the form of allergic disease is not always the same. Allergic
manifestations that appear can vary, such as chilblains, seafood allergy,
allergy medicine, cold allergy (allergic rhinitis), eczema, whereas when it
manifests in the respiratory tract can occur with asthma. Sometimes parents are
so allergic to the medicine, children suffering from asthma.
Asthma cured with frequent trips to the beach
Not true. Live in coastal areas where the air cleaner can make symptoms of asthma control that looks better. If only once in a while just go to the beach does not mean that the asthma will be cured.
Asthma is not curable
True in the sense of the nature of the allergy will continue to persist. Patients with uncontrolled asthma symptoms and asthma can live like other normal activities in a long time. However, a time when exposed to triggers of asthma attacks can happen again.
Swimming can cure asthma
Swimming is one sport that is recommended for patients with asthma, but it does not mean their asthma will be cured by swimming. Another exercise that can improve the fitness of the patient will be very beneficial to the patient's breathing.
Children with asthma are vulnerable ice / chocolate
A child of any drink or eat chocolate ice arising coughing / shortness is not because it does not get used as a child, but basically he has a history of allergies, so those two things into terbangkitnya trigger allergic reactions in the body. If indeed that happens then to avoid the onset of an asthma attack then the child should also be avoided from both.
Inhalation drugs may cause addiction
Inhalation of
asthma medications do not contain a drug that causes addiction. Cessation of
drug inhalation improper control can lead to asthma attacks, but not because of
addiction but because of her asthma has not been controlled.
