Why Did I Have Severe Asthma Attack Without Consuming Dairy?

Patient's Query

What happened to me? I get asthmatic attacks from dairy products regularly. But this time, even though I did not consume any dairy products lately. I have one of the worst one I ever had, got an asthma attack, my eyes are red and specific areas of the left part of my lips is puffed up for some reason. I've consumed a large quantity of dairy products before and the reaction wasn't nearly as severe.

Answered by Dr. Shweta Bansal

You might be having a more serious allergic reaction which could cause your asthma symptoms to worsen; it may also cause swelling in areas such as your lips. Although now you haven't consumed dairy, allergies sometimes develop gradually and give rise to severe reactions. Allergies can often be so severe that they cause the eyes to become red. You should stay away from dairy and consult an allergist to establish your triggers and to receive the correct treatment.

Your symptoms indicate a possible prostate malfunction. The 45% damage to your lung tissue might be causing your breathing issues. Lung infections can result from various causes, such as cough, fever, and difficulty breathing, and can be caused by viruses, bacteria, or fungi. It's essential to take medications for the lung infection: antibiotics for bacterial infections, antivirals for viral infections, and antifungals for fungal infections. Additionally, breathing exercises and treatments like inhalers may help improve your breathing. Get advice from a pulmonologist.

Post-nasal drip could cause your discomfort. Excess mucus draining down your throat can make you cough and feel sinus pressure around your forehead area. Food consumption might trigger it. Staying hydrated by drinking water regularly, and using saline nasal spray, could alleviate these symptoms.

Problem of short breathness,

Male | Srinibash roy

Dyspnea can be caused by various factors such as anxiety, asthma, allergies, or an underlying heart or lung disease. Some of the more ordinary indications may be a feeling of contraction in your chest, a fast heartbeat, and a feeling as if you can't get enough air. It's very important to get to the heart of the matter. Simply trying out activities such as deep breathing exercises or keeping yourself in a state of calm and maintaining good body posture can help. Nevertheless, I suggest you consult a gynecologist to make a thorough check-up and offer you the help you need.

Female | 20

Oh no, now you have been in this bad condition for quite a long time! Having problems like coughing, fever with episodes of normal conditions, and sore throat can really make your life hard. Viruses are the main cause of these symptoms in life. Keep your body hydrated, and take breaks, just eat nutritious meals. Maintain a certain distance and instruct people to cover their coughs and sneezes. If it persists or worsens, consulting a pulmonologist is an essential thing to do.

Since couple of days, I ’m suffering with cold cough and fever .. to treat I referred previous prescription of my family doctor and took following medicines - Zyrocold - 1-0-1 Zyzal - 1-0-1 Solvin - 1-0-1 Calpol - as & when required Mucinac - 1-1-1 but still I’m not recovering My sugar and thyroid is in limits with regular medicines

Female | 56

Taking medicines didn't help you feel better, that's concerning. Colds, coughs and fevers are often viral, requiring tailored treatment. Stay hydrated, well-rested and nourished. However, revisit your doctor for re-evaluation. Tests may reveal the issue, allowing adjusted treatment. Struggling through illness alone risks complications.

Male | 22

Asthma causes breathing difficulties like chest pain and shortness of breath. If you use your inhaler and feel better, that medicine is opening your airways. However, when symptoms return, it may mean asthma isn't fully controlled. You likely need to see a pulmonologist who can adjust your treatment plan. The right treatment helps manage asthma symptoms properly.
