Bronchitis |
Symptoms of Bronchitis
This disease is characterized by the inflammation of the bronchi of the lungs.
Initially there is irritating, dry cough along with retro-sternal pain or discomfort; later on, the cough is persistent and productive with mucoid, blood-streaked sputum.
A sensation of tightness in the chest, difficulty in breathing, and wheezing sound become apparent.
A person might also suffer from mild to moderate fever, malaise, and sore throat.
Ayurveda’s View of Bronchitis
There are mainly five types of bronchitis or “Kasa Roga” in the Ayurvedic texts.
Born out of vitiation of Vata or the air humor.
Born out of vitiation of Pitta or the fire humor.
Born out of vitiation of Kapha or the phlegm humor.
Bronchitis that results from an injury or infection.
Caused as a consequence of tuberculosis.
Ayurvedic Herbs as Respiratory Healers
There are a number of Ayurvedic herbs to encounter the malady of cough. Herbs like Holy Basil, Betel, Ginger, Black Pepper, Turmeric, Cardamom, etc. come handy when dealing with the symptoms. Most of these herbs are part and parcel of home remedies. One herb that I would definitely want to highlight is the Holy Basil.
