Abstract

Definitions for cardiac asthma, bronchitic asthma, and acute and chronic bronchial asthma are given. Attacks of acute or episodal bronchial asthma occur suddenly and end suddenly. Also the whole episode runs for only a few years, frequently in young people. This condition can be taken as an active phase of roused up latent psora. Treatment is with acute remedies and anti-psoric remedies such as Sulphur, Psorinum or Graphites. Chronic bronchial asthma patients have a more or less constant wheeze with occasional paroxysms, cough and frequent recurrent attacks of bronchitis. Antisycotic remedies such as Kali sulphuricum, Medorrhinum, Sepia and nosodes, mainly Bacillinum, should be considered. Etiological factors that are often met with in episodal bronchial asthma are psoric skin eruptions and various nervous manifestations of psoric origin. In all other types of asthma etiological factors that are often found are sycosis or psora-sycosis in the form of warts, psoriasis, eczema, neoplasms, rheumatism, mucopurulent discharges and forms of mental aberrations. Only occasionally is there evidence of syphilitic miasm.
