Introduction To Asthma

  1.  Asthma is growing at a phenominal rate and those that suffer from it in the British Isles number over 5 million.
     

  2.  In most major hospitals in the British Isles, Asthma Practices have been set up.
     

  3. Those who suffer are usually inhibited in taking part in running, sports and other such activities. This is most difficult for  those    still at school.
     

  4. Asthma is a killer. It is estimated that in the past few years as many as 2,300 people per year have died as a result of Asthma. With the latest medicines there is an improvement to this figure. It is hoped that the mortality rate among Asthma sufferers will be lowered even further.
     

  5. Doctors and Specialists have treated more patients for Asthma this year and are aware of the many medicines on the market. These medicines mainly keep Asthma at a low level which enables the patient to have a better quality of life.
