Asthma entities

Miasmatic treatment

• Asthma has wheezing not Stridor, Since it involves small airways not large ones. So I suggest Bronchiolitis instead of Bronchitis as the main entity.

• Asthma maybe accompanied by Eczema or Urticaria.
• We all know Asthmatic cases who has Rhino-sinusitis in child ages
• I eliminate Bronchiolitis and use skin entities, therefore three kind of Miasms are candidated
• Stridor is the sign of Obstructed / Narrowed airways, therefore I use it instead of Bronchospasm
  1. Urticaria: RBOL
  2. Eczema: CXB
  3. Rhinitis: RNV
  4. Sinusitis: RNV, RBOL, RSV
  5. Stridor: RBOL, RSV, ADV, PIV

In order to find deep-acting remedy I suggest four diagnostic features:

1. GERD

Entities / Miasms

	RBOL	RSV	RNV	CXB	ADV	PIV	HMPV
Bronchiolitis	+++	+++	+++	+++	+++	+++	+++
Nose, Discharge, Clear			+++
Eczema				+++
Urticaria	+++
Sinusitis	+++	+++	+++
Stridor	+++	+++			+++	+++

Important miasms

RNV

• RNV is the best Allergic Rhinitis Asthma viral miasm in the absence of skin problems
• RNV theme is not spasmodic but catarrhal.
• Spring and autumn allergies (Specific)

• Laryngitis and Hoarseness + Dry coughs
• Bronchiolitis

• RNV Does not have : Urticaria, Eczema, Productive cough, Tracheitis, Pneumonia, hemoptysis, Vasculitis, Conjunctivitis, Blepharitis

RBOL

• RBOL is the best Allergic Rhinitis Asthma viral miasm in the presence of skin problems Urticaria, Angioedema (specific)
• RBOL theme is lying between spasmodic (INFL, RSV) / catarrhal (RNV).
• Allergic sinusitis (RNV)
• Cough
• Conjunctivitis
• Bronchiolitis, Pneumonia
• Sneezing (CXA-B, RNV)

• RBOL does not have: Eczema, Vasculitis, Tracheitis, Anaphylactic Shock, Laryngitis, Bronchitis

RSV

• Purulent sinusitis, productive coughs (Specific)
• Intercostal retraction (Severe distress) (HMPV)
• Conjunctivitis (RBOL) Burning and Lachrymation
• Paroxysmal periodic coughs (Specific)
• Laryngitis, Bronchitis, Bronchiolitis, Tracheitis, Pneumonia

• Does not have: Sneezing, Vasculitis, Anaphylactic Shock, Eczema, Urticaria, Croup

INFL

• INFL has Obstructive/ Spasmodic theme
• Winter aggravation (Specific) (Opposite to CXA-B)
• Croup (RSV), Laryngitis, Bronchitis, Pneumonia, Tracheitis
• Dry Coughs
• Burning / Pain under the sternum (Specific)
• Shaking chills, agg by cold (CXA-B, HSV-1, HSV-2)
• Calf pain and cramps (Specific)
• Red and flushed face (Special)
• Anaphylactic shock (CXA-B)

CXA-B

• CXA-B is the best Asthma viral miasm in the presence of Eczema
• It has Crosiveness of HSV
• Bronchopneumonia, Interstitial pneumonia (Specific)
• Laryngitis, Bronchitis, Bronchiolitis, Tracheitis
• Anaphylactic Shock (INFL)
• Blepharitis , Preorbital swelling (HSV)
• Cold agg (INFL)
• Muscle spasms (Trapezius, Back )
• Pleurisy: Burning / Pain in Ribs and intercostal space (Specific)
• Summer gripe (Special) (Opposite to INFL)
• Cardiac asthma = Heart failure that leads to Pulmonary edema (Specific)
• Sneezing (RNV, RBOL)

HMPV

• It is useful in catharral Asthma with Productive coughs
• Intercostal retraction (severe distress) (HMPV)
• Otitis externa
• Dysphagia (HSV)
• Conjunctivitis
• Maculopapular rashes on the Face / Trunk
• Night agg
• Pharyngitis, Laryngitis,
• Bronchitis, Bronchiolitis , Pneumonia

HSV-1, HSV-2

• HSV pathologies are always neuralgic. So everything is painful and somehow corrosive.
• Shooting pains in the chest, esp under the sternum
• Shaking chill (INFL, CXA-B)
• Dysphagia (HMPN)
• Conjunctivitis, Blepharitis (CXA-B)
• Bronchitis, Pneumonia, esp interstitial pneumonia, Tracheitis
• Ulcerative Rhinitis, Stomatitis
• Acute respiratory distress
• Eczema (CXA-B)

EBV

• It is not an Asthma miasm, but it has tendency for Allergic reaction to special Food/ Drugs
