			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Allergies can attack all parts of the body, from the head to toe except for her hair and nails.</strong> Besides due to genetic factors, environmental factors, stress and decreased immune allergy cases blow a role in adulthood.</p>
<p>Allergies happen because of genetic factors in the body&#8217;s existing seed allergies continue to pile up, just waiting the triggers. Environmental factors, allergies may occur due to poor sanitation.</p>
<p>We r<strong>ecommend that you need to know the various allergic reactions, causes and appropriate treatment.</strong> Here are some variations allergies, symptoms, and causes:</p>

<p>while the middle eye redness.<br />
<strong>Cause:</strong> The start of the drug to food, like nuts, eggs, milk, fish, chocolate and wine. If allergy of food usually appear 90 minutes after eating.</p>
<p><strong>e. Atopic dermatitis &#038; contact dermatitis</strong><br />

<p>A girl who came from Canada 15-year-old died after kissing her boyfriend. Apparently the man had eaten peanuts few minutes earlier, while <strong>the woman was having food allergies nuts</strong>. (BBC in Judarwanto, 2009). The above story is the threat segelumit facts behind food allergies.</p>
<p><strong>Food allergies can affect all organs and body functions without exception with many dangers and complications that can occur including life-threatening.</strong> Reactions that can occur due to allergies, among others: (1) nausea, (2) diarrhea, (3) angiodema or swelling in the lips, (4) asthma, (5) vomiting, (6) laryngeal edema, or swelling of the laryng, and (7) Anaphylaxis can cause death.<br />
In many countries food allergy sufferers around 2 &#8211; 2.5% in adults, in children approximately 6 &#8211; 8%. In the United States estimated at 100 to 175 people died because of food allergies every year. <strong>Cases of death from food allergy reactions occur because the reaction Anaphylaxis.</strong> Every year the number of death cases caused Anaphylaxis due to food allergy reactions showed an increase. Until now still not clearly known the exact cause of these improvements. An extensive study showed the use of additives in food packaging proteins seem involved.</p>
<p>Anaphylaxis reactions that can threaten the soul does not always found on all people with allergies. Prospective study has been conducted British Pediatric Surveillance Unit Year 1998 &#8211; 2000, the patient food allergic reactions in the hospital. Among the 13 million children in Ireland obtained England and 229 cases reported, or an average of 0.89 patients treated per year per 100,000 children with Anaphylaxis reactions due to food allergies. Obtained 65% female patients, 41% under the age of 4 years and 60% where the incidence is at home. Forty-eight severe cases, 3 fatal and nearly fatal 6.</p>
<p>The incidence of acquired cases of Anaphylaxis Australia about 1 in 200 school children. One of the 6 events Anaphylaxis occurs in schools. Ten of 20 patients died anaphylaxis every 6.7 years. In Indonesia, the case died because of food allergies may have never been reported. This is not just because there is no case, but apparently caused by a lack of attention to the problem.</p>
<p>People with allergies in children at risk of Anaphylaxis due to food allergies usually have a history of digestive disorders, respiratory, skin or swelling of the lips after eating food allergens. Some foods that can threatening soul at certain people such as peanuts, tree nuts (hazelnuts, walnuts, and cashews), eggs, milk cows, fish, and soybeans.<br />
A study says the main cause of allergen is peanuts as much as 21%, 16% tree nuts, cow&#8217;s milk and eggs 10% 7% 1. In a certain amount of food can cause Anaphylaxis reaction. Food antigens may also be hidden in the type of food cake, wheat, sugar or other foods.</p>
<p><strong>About Anaphylaxis</strong><br />
Anaphylaxis is the involvement of one or two heavy ganggua difficulty breathing (swelling of the larynx or asthma) and hypotension (fainting, collapse, and disturbances of consciousness). Time and course of the disease can bervariuasi Anaphylaxis dianatara some patients. Anaphylaxis clinical manifestations that can occur due to food allergy reactions are urticaria (hives), erythema (redness overall), eruritus (broad itching) without rash, angioedema (swelling), laryngeal edema, asthma, rhinitis, conjunctivitis, itchy palate, and the channel meatikus external akustikus, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, palpitations, chest beating, fainting, and disorders of consciousness. Eight of 9 patients who experience asthma symptoms with severity. Clinical manifestations of the most severe of the most often considered as the cause of death was edema of the larynx and cardiovascular collapse. A study says the main complaint consecutive obtained is swelling on the face (76%), hives (69%), respiratory distress (66%) and gastrointestinal (4%).</p>

Children Allergy Center, Bunda Hospital Jakarta</p>
<p><strong>1. Introduction</strong></p>
<p>     Efforts to improve the quality of Human Resources should be done early, systematic and sustainable. Optimization of Children grow and develop early on is a top priority, so that we can prevent or find out distractions and early development of the child disorders.</p>
<p>     Some scientific reports both at home or abroad indicate that the incidence of allergies continue to rise sharply Last post a few years. It seems that allergies are dominated case the patient&#8217;s visit in an outpatient clinic Child Health Service.</p>
<p>     Allergies in children is not as simple as we once knew. Previously we often hear from a specialist in internal medicine, pediatricians, other specialists that the symptoms are allergic cough, runny nose, stuffy and itchy. And allergies can affect all organs without exception start from head to toe with a variety of dangers and complications that might occur. Last post was revealed that allergies can interfere with brain function, so it is disturbing the child&#8217;s development later revealed that the allergic complications caused quite dangerous, because allergies can interfere with any organ or body system including brain function disorders. Because the brain dysfunction that arises interference the development and behavior disorders in children such as concentration, emotional disturbances, delays in speaking, disturbance of concentration to autism.</p>
<p>    Autism and other spectrum disorders symptoms child&#8217;s behavior is the most attention and the case there is a tendency to increase in recent times. Autism is believed some researchers as an anatomical abnormalities in the brain is genetically. There are several things that can trigger autism, including the influence of food or food allergies.</p>
<p>     Risks and signs of allergy can be identified since the child was born  since even sometimes been detectable. Allergies can be prevented early on and is expected to optimize child growth and development optimally.</p>
<p><strong>2. PROCESS EVENT OF ALLERGIC interfere CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM STRUCTURE<br />
</strong><br />
Pathophysiology and pathogenesis (disease process) allergies interfere with central nervous system especially the brain functions are still not uncovered. But there are several possible mechanisms that could explain, among others:</p>
<p><strong>ALLERGIC disturbing TARGET ORGAN</strong></p>
<p>Allergy is an inflammatory process that is not only a fast and slow reactions, but also a chronic inflammatory process is complex, influenced by genetic factors, environmental and internal controls. Various mast cells, basophils, eosinophils, lymphocytes and molecules such as IgE, mediators of cytokines, chemokines is a component of the role of inflammation.</p>
<p>Clinical symptoms occur because the reaction imunologik through the release of several mediators that may interfere with certain organs called target organs. Target organs such as the lungs are the clinical manifestations of cough or bronchial asthma, when the target will be visible as the skin hives, when the target organ of the digestive tract symptoms are diarrhea and so on. Composition of the Central Nervous System or the brain can also be a target organ, especially the brain is an organ that is sensitive and weak. Central nervous system is a central coordination body and noble function. So you can imagine if the brain is disrupted many resulting clinical manifestations may include behavioral disorders in children. Moreover, the common allergic chronic inflammatory process of the complex.</p>
<p><strong>THEORY AND BRAIN abdominal enteric Nervous System<br />
</strong><br />
In allergy can cause both intestinal lining damage due pencernan or dysfunction of the immune system itself. While indigestion itself appears to affect the central nervous system including brain function.</p>
<p>The theory of digestive disorders associated with central nervous system is currently the main concern of the clinician. Neuropatologis research and reported imunoneurofisiologis lot. This theory also explains about one of the mechanisms of behavioral disorders such as autism through the intestinal known Hypermeability or Leaky Gut Syndrome. Golan and Strauss in 1986 reported the existence of abdominal epilepsy, which is a digestive disorder that can cause epilepsy.</p>
<p><strong>Linkages hormonal WITH ALLERGIES</strong></p>
<p>The linkage of hormones with allergic events were reported by many studies. Hormonal changes Sedangatan itself certainly can lead to its own clinical manifestations.</p>
<p>JS Lynch in 2001 suggested that the hormonal effects also occur in people with allergic rhinitis in pregnancy. While Landstra et al in 2001 reported changes were significantly decreased hormone cortisol in bronchial asthma during the night.</p>
<p>Significant discoveries reported Kretszh and konitzky 1998, that the hormone affect allergy as some clinical manifestations of endometriosis and premenstrual syndrome. Several other reports indicate an allergic association with hormonal changes such as are cortisol, metabolic, progesterone and adrenaline.</p>
<p>In allergic patients obtained reduction in hormone cortisol, estrogen, and metabolic. Decrease hormone cortisol can cause allergy fatigue stresse, while the decrease in metabolic hormone changes can cause significant weight. Another Hormona money is hormone estrogen decrease.</p>
<p>Allergies are also associated with increased adrenaline and progesterone hormones. Increased adrenaline clinical manifestations caused mood swings, and anxiety. While hormone progesterone cause skin disorders, Pre menstrual syndrome, Fatigue and loss of hair.</p>
<p><strong>3. ALLERGIES, CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM FORMATION AND DISORDERS-DEVELOPMENT   BEHAVIOR </strong></p>
<p>Central nervous system is the most vulnerable and sensitive than other organs. The brain is the central coordination of all body systems and functions of the sublime. Meanwhile, due to allergies to various organs that can interfere with central nervous system and dysfunction of the immune system itself seems to cause many clinical manifestations that can interfere with the development and behavior of a child.</p>
<p>            There are 2 different things between allergic disorders and relationship disorders central nervous system. Difference depends on the presence or absence of organic brain disorder. If there is organic brain disorders such as autism or any other brain-focus on the process is only aggravate allergies or trigger symptoms. If there is no anatomical abnormalities of the brain is most likely an allergic process is closely associated with these disorders. Usually when there is no brain organ abnormalities or other disease is allergic effects on the brain is usually a good prognosis and the symptoms are not severe.</p>
<p>But when acquired autism or other brain organic disorders the worse the prognosis. However, if the interference is exacerbated by the treatment of allergic triggers allergies to diabetes management can reduce the symptoms.</p>
<p>Allergic Disease Impact on Brain Function, observed by G. Kay, Associate Professor of Neurology and Psychology at Georgetown University School of Medicine Washington. The impact of allergic disease on brain function manifest as decreased quality of life, decrease in good working atmosphere, and decrease the efficiency of cognitive function. Patients with allergic rhinitis reported decreased quality of life similar to that experienced by patients with asthma or other serious chronic diseases. Allergic diseases is not only disrupt the social and work function but also interfere with leisure activities.</p>
<p>Several empirical studies show the effect of allergy to mood and cognitive function. Marshall and Colon in 1989 proved that the group of patients with seasonal allergic rhinitis has a function of verbal learning and mood worse than the group of patients without an allergy attack. In two studies conducted by Vuurman, et al demonstrated that the ability of homework on students&#8217; allergy sufferer worse than the ability of other students by age and IQ are appropriate but do not have the talent allergic (non-atopic).</p>
<p>       Several other researchers showed a connection between allergic diseases with personality disorders such as shyness and aggressiveness. On personality tests can be seen that patients allergic to prioritize action is more physical, more difficult to adjust themselves in the social environment, and have defensive mechanisms that are less good. The number of allergy attacks reported by patients was associated with increased anxiety, depression, difficulty concentrating, and difficulty adjusting to the social environment.</p>
<p>        Allergic disorders associated with central nervous system can cause several clinical manifestations, among neuroanatomi and can interfere with functional neuroanatomi.</p>
<p><strong>A. INTERFERENCE NEUROANATOMI</strong></p>
<p>Allergy to various mechanisms associated with disorders of the body can cause neuroanatomi some clinical manifestations such as headaches, migraines, vertigo, loss of memory for a moment (forget). Some studies show that, for example, in 1992 said Krotzky migraines, vertigo and headache can be caused by food allergies or any other chemical.</p>
<p>        Strel&#8217;bitskaia in 1974 suggests that the interference with asthma found in the brain electrical activity, even though it was not able to do with the reported clinical manifestations.</p>
<p><strong>B. DISORDERS FUNCTIONAL ANATOMY Neuro (DEVELOPMENT AND BEHAVIOR DISORDERS)<br />
</strong><br />
Allergic reactions with various clinical manifestations to the central nervous system can interfere with functional neuroanatomi, would interfere with further development.</p>
<p>What is meant by developmental disorder is a disorder that includes psychomotor function of mental function and motor function. Our limbs or organs of our skeleton can also be affected by developmental disorders.</p>
<p><strong>Motor EXCESSIVE INTERFERENCE</strong></p>
<p>In the newborn characterized by leg movements and hand over, babies do not want to look covered or dibedong. If worn often asked to move down or frequently. At the age of 4 to 6 months have been trying to roads, whereas the ability to walk normally at age 12 months. Sometimes stamped into the back of the head-hit knock heads. At the age of bigger is not going quietly appeared, moving aimlessly on purpose. Accompanied by loss dropped the habit is hard to bed (smack down).</p>
<p><strong>COORDINATION AND BALANCE DISORDERS<br />
</strong><br />
Coordination disorders that can be observed is usually the child does not follow or through a normal developmental phase in accordance with age. The pattern of disturbed motor development is usually alternating body, sitting, crawling, standing or walking. Some children sometimes do not follow the pattern, for example, children do not have to sit or crawl, but immediately walked or stood before a new bias to sit. Also children do not follow the normal pattern of age-appropriate motor development, such as new bias new alternating above age 5 months or 11 months of age sitting.</p>
<p>At age or older on 1 year, marked by aftifitas walk like a hurry or quickly that the ability to walk too late. When you walk often fall, or hit a nearby object. Another habit is that when walking on tiptoe, or when sitting cross-legged position back legs like the letter W.</p>
<p><strong>SLEEP DISORDERS<br />
</strong><br />
Lots of sleep disturbance causes, allergies in children seem to be one of the most frequent cause. Tirosh in 1993 in his study mentioned that in asthma and allergy sufferers are often accompanied by sleep disturbance in the form of frequent waking sleep, shorter sleep time and other sleep disorders.</p>
<p>Allergy sleep disturbance can occur in infancy. In our research shows that babies who are at risk and have allergy symptoms since birth is often the first 3 months of having trouble sleeping, especially at night. Usually the baby is often awake until midnight, especially the morning, sometimes accompanied by frequent fussing and crying in the night heavy hari. If complaint is usually accompanied with colic (crying hysterically unknown reason). At the age of bigger is usually marked by the initial hours of sleep a night, sleep is often restless (his position back and forth), sometimes in a state of sleep often delirious, crying and screaming. Position of sleep often move from one end to the other end of the bed. Middle of the night often waking sleep until morning, suddenly sat down and then sleep again, often prone sleeping position.</p>
<p>At school age children, adolescents and adults is usually characterized by bad dreams at night. The most common nightmare is a dream experienced such horrible visited people who have died or met the scary animals like snakes.</p>
<p>Judarwanto W in 2002 suggests that the observations on 245 children with digestive disorders due to allergies, get 80% of children experience sleep disturbance at night. After treatment of allergy diet, showed that 90% of patients have improvement of sleep disorders.</p>
<p><strong>CONCENTRATION DISORDERS</strong></p>
<p>Children impaired concentration, often tire of a job or activity unless they watch television. Children seem not sit long in a chair. In the class can not calm a lesson, often talking, annoying friends, etc., when a hearing can not hear or follow in a long time. Prominent though seem not to notice when communicating, but the child can respond with good communication and quick.</p>
<p><strong>DELAY OR INTERRUPTION TALK TALK</strong></p>
<p>One of the manifestations of allergies in children are late to talk. The delay in talking when accompanied by a dominant allergic manifestations in children should be further evaluated whether there are linkages between these 2. Some studies indicate a dominant hemisphere disorder. These deviations usually refers to the left brain. Some children are also found irregularities right hemisphere, the corpus hearing kalosum and related trajectories. Suspected allergic manifestations take the role aggravate existing problems such.</p>
<p>Talk on allergic disorders are usually improved rapidly after the age of 2 years. This could perhaps explain the indigestion will link to a disturbing allergy brain function. Indigestion where to allergy sufferers will get better at the age of 2 years as well.</p>
<p>The possibility of language difficulties should thought when a child reaches late stages of language units suitable for her age. Language unit may be voice, words, and sentences. Further language functions are governed by the rules of grammar, which is how sounds form words, words form sentences correctly and so on.</p>
<p>Talk delay occurs in 3-15% of children, and is a development disorder that most often occurs. As many as 1% of children experiencing delays still can not talk talk. Thirty percent of children who have mild delays will heal itself, but 70% of them will have difficulty speaking, less intelligent, or other learning difficulties. Usually mild complaint is directly related to allergic disorders</p>
<p>Allergic manifestations that arise repeatedly and continuously for more than 2 weeks, can affect the disruption to talk on a particular baby under 1 year. Ability to speak to the evaluation since birth. The ability to speak has to be considered carefully by observing carefully disappeared or decreased sounds in the mouth (babbling). Some common words pronounced as ba, da, ma, or pa suddenly disappeared at a certain age. Allergic manifestations improved after the management of the diets was the ability to improve again. This shows clearly that the delay was influenced by talking to an allergic disorder.</p>
<p>Another talk interference can happen is dyslexia, echolalia (mimicking every word of others) and stuttering (stammering).</p>
<p><strong>AGGRESSIVE</strong></p>
<p>Sign aggressive in infants could be observed in the habit of biting and excessive licking. In young infants seen from the habit of entering all the babies even hand to mouth insert foot. At the age of more than 6 months have seemed excessive biting activity is marked by a bite on the hand, shoulder or mouth of someone who wears. While excessive licking habits characterized by licking activity on all items held, on the sheet and the surface of the table.</p>
<p>            Another tendency is the age of 6 months beginning often hit front, the head of another person or the head itself. Another habit is his own hair or someone else&#8217;s hair. If the larger age not only hit with the hand but also the habit of hitting with a stick on the body nearby. At the age of 1 year in addition to hitting coupled with scratching and pinching habits of others. Sometimes, too, looked habit throw toys or objects that hold excess.</p>
<p><strong>EMOTIONAL DISORDERS</strong></p>
<p>Emotional disorders common in allergic children. In infants it appears that the baby was screaming so loud that, if asked to drink often impatient. In older children seem easily upset, easily shouted, when angry often hysterical, throwing objects held to temper tantrums, often hitting the head or hit my head.</p>
<p><strong>HIPERKINESIA</strong></p>
<p>Hiperkinesia interference happens is overactive, it is difficult to control his body to be quiet, children are always moving and looking ill at ease, difficult concentration, to ADHD. Although ADHD is the possibility of suspected organic disorders of the brain.</p>
<p><strong>AUTISM AND ALLERGIES</strong></p>
<p>Autisma is pervasive developmental disorder in children characterized by the disruption and delays in cognitive, language, behavior, communication and social interaction.</p>
<p>Autism until now still not clear why. But research has biomolekular can identify DNA patterns of people with Autism, that is probably already have the talent of this genetic abnormality. But several studies showed the complaint Autism influenced and exacerbated by many things, one because of allergic manifestations. Renzoni A et al in 1995 reported autism is closely related to allergies. Ménage P in 1992 suggests that the obtained relation with patient IgE Autism.</p>
<p>This can also be proved in several studies showing improvement of symptoms of autism in children who suffer from allergies, after handling elimnasi allergy diet. Some other reports say that autism symptoms get worse when it comes allergic manifestations.</p>
<p><strong>4. ALLERGIC RELATIONS WITH OTHER FUNCTIONS OF THE BRAIN<br />
</strong><br />
Storfer et al in 2001 in his study of 2720 child patients with asthma and other allergies, there is a tendency intelegensianya higher capacity compared with other children.</p>
<p>Hazzel in 2000, adding a good intellectual than is usually the child has allergies and asthma outstanding initiative and creativity skills are good. Another tendency is 2 times greater occurrence of Myopia in children with multiple allergic asthma, hubuhngan though it can be linked directly.</p>
<p><strong>5. Management</strong></p>
<p>Handling allergies in children must be done correctly, complete and continuous. Continuous drug delivery is not the best way of handling allergic, but the ideal is to avoid the causes that can cause allergies such complaints.</p>
<p>Special handling allergy in children with developmental disorders and other behavioral disorders should involve several disciplines, because it must be ensured that no organic abnormalities, other systemic or psychological. So if necessary in consultation on child neurology, child psychiatrists, pediatricians interest growth, endocrinology child and the child gastroenterologist.</p>
<p>      But if the opinion of several experts in conflict and other allergic manifestations in children is clear, then there is no harm in us doing the management of food allergy with an open elimination. Such treatment should be evaluated in 2 or 3 weeks using a diary. If development and behavioral disorders such improvement then there can be certain that such interference is the cause or triggers allergies.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, to overcome the symptoms of developmental disorders and behavioral existing therapy approaches can be done with occupational therapy, speech therapy, sensory integration therapy, hearing or vision therapy and so on.</p>
<p><strong>6. CAUSE ALLERGIES OTHER THAN EATING</strong></p>
<p>            There are also some foods that can interfere with the brain but not the immunological reaction but because the food or raksi intersection of food intolerance include the salicylates, tartarzine (food dyes), nitrates, amines, MSG (monosodium glutamate), antioxidants, yeast, lactose, benzoate,</p>
<p>Salicylates; found in fruits, Saur, peanuts, the, coffee, beer, wine and drugs such as aspirherbs, spices, spreads, Teas &#038; Coffee, juices, beer and wines and medications such as aspirin. High Konsestrasi found in dried fruits such as sultanas.</p>
<p>Amines; produced during fermentation and protein breakdown is found in cheese, chocolate, wine, beer, tempeh, vegetables and fruits such as bananas, avocados and tomatoes.</p>
<p>Benzoates; found in some fruits, vegetables, nuts, wine, coffee and so on.</p>
<p>Monososodium glutamate (MSG); often found in food flavorings: MSG, soy sauce, or other foods</p>
<p>Lactose: often found in cow&#8217;s milk</p>
<p>Glutamate; many found in tomatoes, cheese, mushrooms, sauce, meat and mushroom extracts.</p>
<p><strong>7. Prognosis</strong></p>
<p>The prognosis for the development and behavioral disturbances associated with allergic depends on the presence or absence of organic brain disorders such as autism or a focus on the brain. If confirmed there is no anatomical abnormalities of the brain then the prognosis would be better. Usually if the interference is controlled it will look drastically perbaikkan developmental disorder and behavior. In this type of disturbance on the age of 2 to 5 years there is a tendency to improve.</p>
<p>            But when acquired autism or other brain organic disorders the worse the prognosis. However, if the interference is exacerbated by the treatment of allergy triggers allergy with diabetes management would be very much help.</p>
<p><strong>8. CLOSING</strong></p>
<p>Allergy problems in children seem not as simple as is well known. Frequent recurrence of the disease, so the extent of the affected body system and the danger of complications that occur seem to be due to more attention for the formation of plants and flowers optimal child.</p>
<p>Allergic disorders with a variety of allegations turned out to be menggganggu mechanism neuroanatomis and mengkibatkan functional neuroanatomis development and behavior disorders in children.</p>
<p>Risks and allergy symptoms can be identified and detected in the womb and at birth, thus preventing allergy symptoms can be done as early as possible. The risk of complications and disorders central nervous system is expected to be reduced.</p>
<p>Special handling allergy in children with developmental disorders and other behavioral disorders should involve several disciplines, because it must be ensured that no organic abnormalities, other systemic or psychological. If you need consultation on child neurology, child psychiatrists, pediatricians interest growth, endocrinology child and the child gastroenterologist. If the opinion of several experts is contradictory and anatomical disorders of the brain is not clear, could have done with the management of food allergy elimination diet changes open evaluation or improvement of behavioral disturbances that arise.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You may be familiar with <strong>asthma. Disease recurrence when it is, a person is having difficulty breathing, shortness of breath</strong> from the start of mild to severe. Own asthma because of the narrowing of the airways caused by various stimuli, including allergic to dust, animal hair or a certain temperature (cold weather). In particular asthma, the disease can be triggered by fatigue, food allergies or something else.</p>
<p><strong>Some experts say that asthma can not be cured</strong>. If there is no cure, <strong>it only serves to reduce or eliminate the symptoms drive / attack for a while, not permanently lost</strong>. This means that when the trigger back, it will come asthma sufferers encounter. But, many people who were hereditary states that asthma can be cured completely by consuming certain animals.</p>
<p>Of course this is not based on a prescription or medical advice, but at least they believe in alternative medicine was as easy, cheap and practical to be used as an asthma drug. <strong>Some animals are believed to be the asthma medication, including:</strong></p>
<p>  <strong> 1. Bats</strong>. Some kind of animal who likes to eat tonight fruit. These animals are often found in large trees as a place of residence.<br />
   <strong>2. Conch Poison</strong>. Called snail toxins because they contain toxic liquids that are stored on the hard shell behind. These animals usually live in places which moist and dark<br />
  <strong> 3. Lizard.</strong> This animal is known as a catcher and mosquitoes or insect predators. Lizard often found on the walls of the house<br />
  <strong> 4. Gecko.</strong> Lizard-like animal that is used to living in the attic, loft or in large trees. This animal was known for his trademark sound &#8220;gecko gecko &#8230; &#8230;&#8221;<br />
 <strong>  5. Rabbit.</strong> Animals eating these vegetables are mostly found in cool areas. But this time the rabbit can be easily found in the animal markets around you.<br />
 <strong>  6. Sparrow.</strong> These birds are often found in paddy fields. They usually live in groups. These animals like to make nests in trees with height was</p>
<p>Of course I do not recommend you directly to try it, before you make sure first that there is content on the animals mentioned above. You can ask the ruling to the nearest clergy. Likewise about the content of substances that are safe or harmful to animals if consumed, you can ask a dietician or a doctor nearby.</p>
<p>To be sure, the animals are just a series of alternative traditional medicine that may be your choice. Healing problems and efficacy of alternative medicine (even any drug) of the will of the LORD., Man is only obligated to pray and try it. Hopefully these tips useful.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Asthma is a condition in which narrowing of the respiratory tract has (temporarily) because of hyperactivity of certain stimuli, which cause inflammation.</p>
<p><strong>Asthma Causes</strong></p>
<p>This narrowing can be triggered by various stimuli, such as pollen, dust, animal fur, smoke, cold air and exercise.</p>
<p>In an asthma attack, smooth muscle spasm of the bronchi and networking experience that covers the airways have swollen because of inflammation and the release of mucus into the airways. This will reduce the diameter of the airways (called bronchoconstriction) and this causes narrowing of the patient must be trying hard in order to breathe.</p>
<p>Certain cells in the airways (particularly mast cells) allegedly responsible for the beginning of this constriction. Mast cells throughout the bronchi substances such as histamine release and causing leukotrien:<br />
- Smooth muscle contraction<br />
- Increase the formation of mucus<br />
- Transfer of certain white blood cells into the bronchi.<br />
Mast cell material is issued in response to something they know as a foreign object (allergens), such as pollen, fine dust contained in the home or animal fur.</p>
<p>But asthma can also occur in some people without a specific allergy. The same reaction occurs when the person is doing sports or being in cold weather. Stress and anxiety can also trigger the release of histamine and leukotrien.</p>
<p>Other cells (eosnofil) found in the asthmatic airways release other materials (also leukotrien), which also causes constriction of the airways.</p>
<p><strong>Asthma Symptoms</strong></p>
<p>The frequency and severity of asthma attacks varies. Some people more often free of symptoms and only experience shortness of breath attacks brief and light, which happens from time to time. Other patients almost always have a cough and wheezing (asthma) and have a great attack after suffering a viral infection, exercise or after exposure to the allergens and irritants. Crying or laughing out loud can also cause symptoms.</p>
<p>An asthma attack can occur suddenly marked by breath sounds (wheezing, wheezing, asthma), cough and shortness of breath. The sound of wheezing sound especially when the patient breathes his breath. At other times, an asthma attack occurs gradually with symptoms that gradually worsened.</p>
<p>In the second situation, which was first felt by a people with asthma are shortness of breath, cough or tightness in the chest. The attack could take place within a few minutes or may last for hours, even for a few days.</p>
<p>Early symptoms in children can include itching in the chest or neck. Dry cough at night or during exercise can also be the only symptom.</p>
<p>During asthma attacks, shortness of breath may become more severe, causing anxiety. As a reaction to anxiety, patients will also issue a lot of sweat.</p>
<p>In a very severe attack, the patient became difficult to speak because of crowded very great.<br />
Confusion, lethargy (decreased state of consciousness, where people like to sleep soundly, but can be aroused briefly and then immediately fell asleep again) and cyanosis (bluish skin looks) is an indication that the patient oxygen supply is limited and treatment should be done immediately. Despite a heavy attack, the patient will usually complete recovery,</p>
<p>Sometimes some of the alveoli (air pockets in the lungs) can rupture and cause the air collects in the pleural space or cause air collects around the organs of the chest. This will exacerbate the difficulty felt by the patient.</p>
<p><strong>Immediately and Medical Treatment Routine</strong></p>
<p>Immediate treatment to control asthma attacks different from routine treatment to prevent attacks.</p>
<p>Agonist beta-adrenergic receptor is the best medicine to reduce asthma attacks that occur suddenly and to prevent attacks that may be triggered by exercise.<br />
Bronchodilators stimulated by widening the airway beta-adrenergic receptors.<br />
Newer bronchodilators have a longer effect, but because it works more slowly at first, then the drug is more widely used to prevent attacks.</p>
<p>Another type of theophylline bronchodilators.<br />
Number of theophylline in the blood can be measured in the laboratory and should be monitored closely, because the amount is too small will not provide the effect, while the amount is too much can cause abnormal heart rhythms or seizures.</p>
<p>Corticosteroid prevents the inflammatory response and is very effective in reducing asthma symptoms. When used in long-term corticosteroid will gradually decrease the likelihood of causing asthma attacks by reducing airway sensitivity to some stimuli.<br />
But the use of tablets or the long-term corticosteroid injections can cause:<br />
- Disruption wound healing process<br />
- Impaired growth of children<br />
- Loss of calcium from bone<br />
- Bleeding of the stomach<br />
- Cataract premature<br />
- Increase in blood sugar levels<br />
- Weight gain<br />
- Hunger<br />
- Mental disorders.</p>
<p>Cromolin and nedocromil allegedly blocking the release of inflammatory substances from mast cells and cause reduction in airway pengkerutan possible. This drug is used to prevent attacks, not to treat an attack.<br />
These drugs are particularly effective for children and for asthma because of sports. This drug is very safe, but relatively expensive and must be taken regularly even though the patient free of symptoms.</p>
<p>Anticholinergic drugs (eg atropine and ipratropium bromide) works by blocking the smooth muscle contraction and the formation of excessive mucus in the bronchi by acetylcholine. Furthermore, this drug will lead to widening of the airways in patients who previously had consumed agonist beta2-adrenergic receptor.</p>
<p>Leukotrien modifiers (eg montelucas, zafirlucas and zileuton) is a new drug to help control asthma. These drugs prevent the action or formation leukotrien (chemicals made by the body that cause asthma symptoms).</p>
<p>An asthma attack should get treatment as soon as possible to open the airways. Drugs used to prevent also used to treat asthma, but in higher doses or in a different form.</p>
<p>Agonist beta-adrenergic receptors are used in the form of inhalers (inhaled medications) or as a Nebulizer (for shortness of breath very heavy).<br />
Nebulizer directs air or oxygen under pressure through a solution of the drug, resulting in the fog to be inhaled by the patient.</p>
<p>Treatment of asthma can also be done by giving epinephrine injection or subcutaneous terbutaline and aminophylline (theophylline similar) via intravenous infusion.</p>
<p>Patients who experience a great attack and showed no improvement on other medications, corticosteroid injections can get, usually intravenously (through the blood vessels).</p>
<p>During a severe asthma attack, carried out:<br />
- Examination of oxygen and carbon dioxide levels in the blood<br />
- Examination of lung function (usually with a spirometer or peak flow meter)<br />
- Chest X-ray examination.</p>
<p><strong>Treat asthma with Herba</strong></p>
<p>Traditional herbs recipe for overcoming the loss of asthma sufferers came rubbed with ginger grater is blended with eucalyptus oil. Natural materials that can be used in a single asthma cure is Centella asiatica or hooves atawa (Centella asiatica Urban). Way, take 12 pieces of Centella asiatica leaves, after being washed and then boiled with 300 cc of water to stay clean until 200 cc.<br />
After chilling filtered, the result is taken three times a day each in the same amount. Do it this way until the shortness of breath is reduced. This recipe can also be used to cure ordinary cough.<br />
Patients accustomed to bask himself every morning for at least 30 minutes and stop smoking.</p>
<p><strong>Treating asthma with Meat of  Bats</strong></p>
<p>So far we know traditionally that bats was able to cure or at least alleviate asthma. There&#8217;s even a mouse that states children can heal.<br />
The first way to cook almost all parts of the body except the bat wings. Bat wings and legs in the waste. Cooking can be a variety of good menu is boiled, mixed vegetables or fried.<br />
second way. Get heart bats, cooked as we cook chicken liver, fried and then sauteed with onion and garlic, and eat regularly.</p>
<p><strong>Treating asthma with Rabbit Meat</strong></p>
<p>Oang Many are uncomfortable to consume bats as asthma medications, ranging from kehalalannya question, disgusted, horrified to difficulties in getting the animal tonight. The emergence of rabbit meat as an alternative to bat was encouraging, given the ease and delicious already popular in the community.</p>
<p>Rabbit meat contain a substance called kitotefin compounds. These compounds when combined with various other compounds such as omega three and nine, was pointed to as an asthma remedy.</p>
<p>Technically, the meat-producing compounds kitotefin serves to stabilize the cell membrane mastosit. Asthma, which occurs due to allergies can be prevented with the meat that bersenyawa kitotefin in the body. Because the meat is to stimulate the formation of antibodies in the body. And if the antibody is attached to the mastorit cells, can prevent the outbreak of the membrane. Rupture of membranes can build muscle, airway smooth muscle contraction. The result, airway narrowing to happen asthma.</p>
<p>Of particular interest may be only a matter of processing the meat before eating. Because if haphazard process can result in loss kotitefin existing levels. So the meat processing is not recommended in very hot conditions. The recommended temperature for cooking meat, not to exceed 150 degrees Celsius</p>
<p>For Long-Term Care</p>
<p>Utilization of herbs, meat bats / Flying-Fox and rabbit meat for asthma treatment, intended for long-term treatment, so it should be done routinely.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Someone who has a wide waist circumference was also at increased risk of asthma.</p>
<p><strong>Women who have problems of obesity, high risk of asthma. </strong>Then, someone who has a normal body weight but the size of his stomach is very wide circle also at increased risk of asthma.</p>
<p>It is known from studies conducted by a team from the Northern California Cancer Center. The research team revealed that <strong>obese women are more at risk of asthma compared with women who have normal weight</strong> but abdominal circumference of more than 34 inches or 88 cm.</p>
<p>&#8220;Obesity can make asthma symptoms experienced by patients getting worse,&#8221; said one researcher, Julia Von Behrentold, such as quotes from Genius VIVAnews Beauty, Thursday, November 5, 2009.</p>
<p>The study involved 88,304 women who are obese. Some of these women had to undergo intensive treatment when experience asthma attack. Then, as many as 13 percent of women have body mass index (BMI) of 30 and 1.5 percent have a BMI of 40. BMI&#8217;s size can be used as a benchmark to determine a person are obese or not.</p>
<p>Any registration numbers BMI, for the obese woman should see her doctor. Not only the risk of heart disease but also very high risk of asthma. Regular exercise and implement a healthy diet is the most appropriate solution to avoid obesity.</p>
<p><strong>Large waist Women, Vulnerable Asthma</strong></p>
<p>Large waist not only ruin the appearance. The women big waist, it is also more vulnerable to asthma. A study in California trying to express the link between obesity and asthma.</p>
<p>Previously, the connection between the two is often observed. In a study published in the journal Thorax, there are more specific findings that relate not only obesity, but obesity and asthma in the waist. The study involving 88,000 female respondents. Of these, 37 percent of them have asthma because they have a waist size above normal, but they are not overweight.</p>
<p>This study was part of the research on the factors of breast cancer spread does Northern California Cancer Center. In this study data was also obtained respondents as waist circumference and body weight. From the data that was found in suspected link between waist circumference and asthma. A researcher from the Northern California Cancer Center, Julie von Behren, said that the women who weigh over bodymass standard index (BMI) had asthma.</p>
<p>Still according to the study, fat around the stomach area was an important role to increase the risk of asthma. &#8220;The size of the waist can be indicators of whether he was overweight,&#8221; said Von Behren.</p>
<p>According to him, the soft area around the stomach very easily happen fat deposition. Accumulation of fat in this area are also often linked as a trigger to diabetes and heart attacks.</p>
<p>Doktor Alejandro Arroliga, Chief Scott &#038; White Memorial Hospital and Clinic in Temple, Texas, welcomed the results of the study.</p>
<p>&#8220;This is a large study involving 88,000 people. It&#8217;s amazing,&#8221; he said. However, he hoped that links two more specifically described. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://symptoms-causesof.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/asthma_child.gif" alt="asthma_child" title="asthma_child" width="534" height="305" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-190" />Asthma disease usually results from a complex combination of genetic and environmental factors. Of course, the emergence of asthma due to hereditary factors can not be eliminated but its attacks can be prevented in the ways below:</p>
<p><strong>1. Identifying and minimizing contact with the things that can trigger asthma</strong></p>
<p>The first time that must be done by people with asthma that is to recognize what can cause him stricken with asthma. Then try to stay away from the cause of asthma. There are many causes of asthma include smoking, air pollution, animal fur, tartrazine (a yellow dye used in the manufacture of food and medication tablets), preservatives, cold air, and others. However, because usually things that cause asthma are common in our environment and difficult to avoid, we can protect ourselves by using masks, for example, to prevent contact with dust and animal fur, or by washing hands to avoid infection of the respiratory tract .</p>
<p><strong>2. Drug consumption and asthma preventive foods</strong></p>
<p>Drugs, such as glucocorticoid (ciclesonide, beclomethasone), can be used to prevent asthma, but of course must be a doctor&#8217;s prescription. In addition, according to a study, by eating fruits and vegetables a yellow-orange, and selenium-rich foods (fish, eggs, chicken, liver, garlic) can protect the lungs so that the lower the risk of asthma.</p>
<p><strong>3. Observe and identify the early signs of asthma attacks</strong></p>
<p>Every asthma attack will not show up without any prior warning. Therefore recognizable symptoms initially, such as cough, shortness of breath, breath sounds, feeling very tired.</p>
<p><strong>4. Treated as soon as early symptoms of asthma attacks</strong></p>
<p>As the early symptoms of asthma, which has been mentioned above, attack, immediately taking the drug had been prescribed by a doctor before the attack becomes much worse. Therefore, these drugs should always be taken anywhere, because we do not know when an asthma attack will come.</p>
<p>These are some ways to prevent asthma. However, consult a doctor still needs to be done so that prevention efforts are more successful. </p>
<p><strong>Furthermore how to cure asthma? The following tips may be helpful<br />
</strong></p>
<p>1. Avoid trigger factors of asthma. These factors vary in each person. There are allergic to dust, cold, certain food allergies that can trigger asthma.<br />
2. Mild exercise routine.<br />
3. Do not get overweight.<br />
4. Avoid stress. Just easy going. Do not be too burdened with problems. Keep your emotions, do not be too emotional.<br />
5. Healthy diet.<br />
6. Breathing exercises.<br />
7. Eating certain alternatives. Some said squirrel meat is good for asthma.</p>
<p>Medically, asthma can not be cured, but can reduce the frequency of recurrence.<br />
Could have fully recovered but with a very special way. Usually requires a certain awareness and understanding, can only recover.</p>
<p>Tip from me, maybe this could reduce asthma attacks, get used to drinking warm water (slightly hot) a full glass (400cc) before you sleep all day without a break, it&#8217;s been proven to reduce the frequency of attacks ashma,  if ashma recurrence is better to use drugs spray being sucked through the mouth (Berotec, Ventolin, or the like) of the drug consuming trying  in the drink. Good luck hopefully heal quickly!</p>

<p>Apples are eaten by women during pregnancy was help prevent asthma and allergies in children. Flavonoid in apples that provide these benefits.<br />
A new study examining nearly 2000 foods pregnant women and checked the lung health of their children in 1253 at the age of 5 years.</p>
<p>Among the variety of foods eaten and recorded by pregnant women, only apple consumption showed a consistent protection against asthma and shortness of breath.</p>
<p>The children of pregnant mothers who eat more than 4 apples per week as much as 37% which is less a history of shortness of breath and had 53% less asthma after doctors confirmed, compared with mothers who ate one or no apples per week during pregnancy.</p>
<p>According to the researchers, the food eaten by mothers during pregnancy have a greater influence on children than respiratory channel food consumption of the child at least until the age of 5 years.</p>
<p>The existence of specific relationships found in apples, and not by the total number of edible fruit or juice, fruit juice or vegetable consumption.</p>
<p>Apple-specific effect may be due to the unique flavonoids have been shown to have beneficial effects on lung function of adults. </p>
<p><strong>2. Intestine worms</strong></p>
<p>So far, the worms that live in human intestines known only as parasites and bullies only. But researchers from the UK and Vietnam found that intestinal worms can be beneficial for the treatment of asthma and allergies.</p>
<p>A study in Vietnam showed that the parasitic worms that live in human intestines such as hookworm, allows to be developed as new treatments to overcome asthma and allergies.</p>
<p>Infection caused by hookworm and other parasites have become endemic in Vietnam, but the average asthma and allergic disease is still fairly low in the area. Researchers from the UK and Vietnam provide care to children around to clean the child&#8217;s body from intestinal worm infections.<br />
Experts believe that over millions of years evolving worms, so that it can reduce the human immune system that cause these worms can prolong survival in the human body.</p>
<p>The selected area as a research center is a village in central Vietnam, where any two of the three children infected with hookworm and other intestinal parasites are rarely found and allergic diseases. The study involved 1500 school children aged 6 to 17 years. Some children were given tablets to clean the worms over the body and found the children who received these tablets risk of allergy increased significantly.</p>
<p>Obtained more than 80 percent of people with asthma also have allergies to dust or other environmental allergens, and researchers are convinced that the worms in the intestine have the potential to alter the human immune response.</p>
<p>&#8220;The next step is to understand exactly how these intestinal parasites affect the human immune system and protects against allergies,&#8221; said Dr Carsten Flohr, a researcher from the University of Nottingham, as quoted by the BBC, Wednesday (30/9/2009).</p>
<p>Flohr hope these results can help the development of new treatments to balance the body&#8217;s immune system that does not respond to allergens or does not trigger an asthma attack. However, still need a long scientific research to determine whether this method really works to overcome asthma and allergies in humans. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Destination anti-asthma treatment is to free people from asthma attacks. This can be achieved by treating asthma attacks that are happening or prevent asthma attacks should not be happening.<br />
Treat here is not meant to cure disease, but eliminate the symptoms of shortness, cough, or wheezing. Things that have been free of asthma symptoms is to be maintained in order to further asthma attacks do not come back.<br />
The drugs can make asthma sufferers to live a normal life. Immediate treatment to control asthma attacks differ from routine treatment to prevent asthma attacks.<br />
To treat asthma attack is happening is necessary cure asthma symptoms immediately. The drug is made up of groups bronchodilators and systemic corticosteroids group.<br />
Bronchodilators means drugs that can dilate the airways by relaxing muscles in the airways that are shrunken, whereas corticosteroids are allergy medications and anti-inflammatory is given by the systemic objectives distributed throughout the body via blood circulation.<br />
There is a group of people who so often under attack that almost never had the asthma symptom-free. This is called chronic state that can last for months and even years. The treatment requires a long period of time each day and the patient must take medication.<br />
1. Receptor agonists Beta-2 adrenergic<br />
The best medicine is to reduce asthma attacks that occur suddenly and to prevent attacks that may be triggered by exercise. Bronchodilators stimulated by widening the airway beta-adrenergic receptors.<br />
Bronchodilators that work on all receptor beta-2 adrenergic (eg adrenaline), causing side effects of rapid heartbeat, anxiety, headaches and tremors (shaking) muscle.<br />
Bronchodilators are only working on the receptor beta-2 adrenergic (mainly found in the cells in the lungs), have few side effects on other organs. These bronchodilators (eg albuterol), causes fewer side effects compared with bronchodilators that work on all receptor beta-2 adrenergic.<br />
Most of bronchodilators work in a few minutes, but the effect only lasts for 4-6 hours. Newer bronchodilators have a longer effect, but because it works more slowly at first, then the drug is more widely used to prevent attacks.<br />
Bronchodilators available in the form of tablets, injections or inhalers (inhaled drugs) and very effective. Inhalation bronchodilators will precipitate the drug directly into the airways, so the first work quickly, but can not reach the airway becomes blocked heavy.<br />
Bronchodilators by mouth (swallowed) and injections can reach the area, but has side effects and at work tend to be slow. Another type of theophylline bronchodilators. Theophylline is usually given by mouth (swallowed); available in various forms, tablets and syrup mulaidari short-acting capsules and tablets to long-acting.<br />
In an asthma attack severe disease, can be given intravenously (through the blood vessels). The amount of theophylline in the blood can be measured in the laboratory and should be monitored closely, because the amount is too small will not give effect, while the amount is too much can cause abnormal heart rhythms or seizures.<br />
At the time of first taking theophylline, the patient may feel a little sick or nervous. Both these side effects usually disappear when the body can adjust to the medication.<br />
In larger doses, the patient could feel the rapid heartbeat or palpitations (heart pounding). Can also occur insomnia (difficulty sleeping), agitation (anxiety, fear of), vomiting, and seizures.<br />
2. Corticosteroids<br />
Corticosteroids block the inflammatory response and is very effective in reducing asthma symptoms. If used in the long term, corticosteroids will gradually decrease the likelihood of causing penyakitasma attacks by reducing airway sensitivity to some stimuli.<br />
But the use of tablets or the long-term corticosteroid injections can cause:<br />
• disruption wound healing process<br />
• impaired growth of children<br />
• loss of calcium from bone<br />
• bleeding gastric<br />
• cataract premature<br />
• increase in blood sugar levels<br />
• weight gain<br />
• hunger<br />
• mental disorders<br />
Corticosteroid tablets or injections can be used for 1-2 weeks to reduce attacks of severe asthma. Corticosteroids by mouth (swallowed) is given for the long term only if other treatments can not control the asthma symptoms.<br />
For long-term use corticosteroid inhalers are usually given because the inhalers, the drug reached the lungs 50 times more than the drug to the other body parts.<br />
3. Cromolin and Nedocromil<br />
Both drugs were allegedly blocking the release of inflammatory substances from mast cells and cause reduction in airway shrinkage possibility. This drug is used to prevent attacks, not to treat an attack.<br />
These drugs are particularly effective for children and asthma due to exercise. This drug is very safe, but relatively expensive and must be taken regularly even though the patient free of symptoms.<br />
4. Anticholinergic drugs<br />
These drugs work by blocking the smooth muscle contraction and the formation of excessive mucus in the bronchi by acetylcholine. Furthermore, this drug will lead to widening of the airways in patients who previously had consumed agonist beta2-adrenergic receptor. Examples of these drugs are atropine and ipratropium bromide.<br />
5. Modifier Leukotrien<br />
Is a new drug to help control asthma. These drugs prevent the action or formation leukotrien (chemicals made by the body causing symptoms of asthma). Example montelucas, zafirlucas and zileuton.<br />
Treatment for Acute Asthma Attacks<br />
An asthma attack should get treatment as soon as possible to open the airways. Drugs used to prevent also used to treat asthma, but in higher doses or in a different form.<br />
Receptor agonist beta-2 adrenergic is used in the form of inhalers (inhaled medications) or as a Nebulizer (for shortness of breath very heavy). Nebulizer directs air or oxygen under pressure through a solution of the drug, resulting in the fog to be inhaled by the patient.<br />
Treatment of asthma can also be done by giving or terbutalin epinephrine injection under the skin and aminophylline (theophylline similar) via intravenous infusion.<br />
Patients who experience a great attack and showed no improvement on other medications, corticosteroid injections can get, usually intravenously (through the blood vessels).<br />
In the asthma attack is usually severe low blood oxygen levels, which are given extra oxygen. In the event of dehydration, may need to be given fluids intravenously. If the suspected infection, given antibiotics.<br />
During an asthma attack is severe, do:<br />
• examination of oxygen and carbon dioxide levels in the blood<br />
• examination of lung function (usually with a spirometer or peak flow meter)<br />
• chest X-ray examination.<br />
Asthma Treatment Long Term<br />
One of the asthma treatment is most effective is an agonist inhalers containing receptor beta-2 adrenergic. Excessive use of inhalers can cause heart rhythm disturbances.<br />
If the use of bronchodilators inhaler 2-4 times / day for 1 month was not able to reduce the symptoms, can be added to corticosteroid inhalers, cromolin or leukotrien modifier. If symptoms persist, especially at night, can also be added theophylline by mouth.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Number of asthma sufferers in Indonesia continued to increase sharply Last post a few years, especially in South Sumatra. Most asthma occur in children and potentially interfere with the growth and development. Asthma itself is a disease that has many causes and factors most often because of atopy (allergy). This disease is associated with hereditary disease. If one or both parents, grandfather or grandmother astma children suffer can be lowered to the child.</p>
<p>Part disease in FK Unsri / RSMH Palembang, Prof. Dr. Salim Mart Eddy, SpPD-KAI some time ago. say, the factors that cause and trigger asthma include house dust mites, animal fur, smoke, smoke mosquito coil, and others. Some foods which trigger such as cow&#8217;s milk, fish, fruits, nuts and even the weather factor. &#8220;In foreign countries, people with asthma decreased dramatically, while in our area increased. Research in Palembang and test each patient&#8217;s asthma, 80 percent of asthma triggers are factors that house dust and air pollution, &#8220;he said.</p>
<p>In addition to the dust factor, the food industry products with artificial coloring (eg tartazine), preservatives (metabisulfit), and MSG (monosodium glutamate-MSG) can also trigger asthma. &#8220;The condition of other triggers that can cause asthma is the activity, infectious diseases, emotions or stress,&#8221; said Eddy Salim Mart.</p>
<p>Participants before the meeting, Eddy said, if there had been a genetic factor, then immediately conducted bermanifes prevention, environmental factors that must be manipulated. &#8220;Someone has the potential asthma should stay away from objects that absorb dust, such as carpet rugs, furry dolls should be cleaned and shunned,&#8221; he said.<br />
Problems Asthma</p>
<p>Frequent relapse and recurrence of asthma complaints, so that frustrated parents eventually moved from one doctor to another doctor. This is done because often the complaints are allergies in children are often given drugs relapse, although the most expensive and best. If management is not done properly and correctly, then the complaint will allergies or asthma, and there is a tendency over naughty. Recurrent relapses will lead to increased health care expenses. But to be more attention is the increase risk for the occurrence of side effects from medication. Not infrequently with asthma get the treatment of antibiotics, anti-allergy or even a steroid in a long time.</p>
<p>Eddy Mart According to Salim, people with asthma are at risk of anaphylactic reactions due to food allergies can be fatal, life-threatening. Food is particularly frequent cause of fatal reactions are nuts, fish and eggs. After eating certain foods packed reaction, wheezing, fainting, and disorders of consciousness. If not immediately life-threatening can be saved.</p>
<p>To overcome asthma sufferers who have not been to the doctor, usually, people buy medicines in the shop. Of course, these drugs have limitations. If you go to the doctor, the drug that will be used there are two kinds. The first preventive medicine (controller) in the form of suction, if he attack (attack) bersipat salve medicine. &#8220;Medicine is not very effective fighter because at any moment will recur so that the required controller medications,&#8221; said Eddy Salim Mart.</p>
