Atonchia Supersonic February 17, 2011 Share February 17, 2011 As title - Anyone knows any good TCM doctor for treating children asthma? Don't have one to recommend But my mum once took me to see a few TCMs many years back. Have tried 1) crocodile meat double boiled in some herbs. 2) dried fish maw with dried persimmon soup. Avoid places with pollen, smoke, and high humidity. - Can cause allergy to air tract. Avoid cold drinks, citrus fruits or those 'cold' food (ie cabbage etc). - Can cause air tract to contract (thought it's only an old chinese myth about 'cold' food, but read somewhere there's some truth, due to food allergy reaction) Previously, it happened to me most often during the evening time/dusk. This is cause by change in the atmospheric pressure due to change in temperature as the sun is setting, that cause dust particules to suspend in the air, became irritants and cause allergy to the breathing tract. I think I had sensitive breathing tract and occasionally suffer from breathing difficulty with the above circumstances. However, not serious to the extend of whizzing sound when breathing. Hope it helps. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whathefish 5th Gear February 18, 2011 Share February 18, 2011 No soft toys and wash the bed sheets regularly. No Cold drinks. I used to have it when i am young and my parents tried their might to find a cure becoz my dad said "once u r over 15 yrs old..it will not be cure" . The TCM recommend, I have been see her since very young and now my kids. Of coz my asthma cured long long ago. And combat fit with Pes A then. The medicine is easier for kids to drink becoz not the powder kind. TCM: - 1. 林宝花 At Bukit Merah Food Centre Blk 163, 2nd floor. a few shop away from NTUC dental. U cant miss it. Sunday not open.

Watwheels Supersonic February 18, 2011 Share February 18, 2011 Previously I ever bought american ginseng pills(powered ginseng in capsules) for a friend who has asthma when I' was in Korea. He told me the pills help a lot. I think it might be too strong for children. Maybe when you go consult a TCM ask for a ginseng prescription for children.

Skunk Clutched February 18, 2011 Share February 18, 2011 my younger bro had his childhood asthma cured the hard way: lots of swimming n Ventolin. My dad would sit beside the swimming pool n force him to swim lap after lap, until he was totally exhausted....and if he started to wheeze, he would be given Ventolin to inhale. rest for 3 minutes, then continue to swim again. This routine went on week after week until his lungs and body strengthened, and his asthma was cured. Basically, childhood asthma has different causes from adult asthma.....and the best way is to strengthen the lungs until they would no longer constrict under all kinds of stress, whether it's allergen, cold drinks, fur, dust or whatever. Very cruel but very effective! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i guess my dad meant well :) and i'm glad my bro today is tall, strong, healthy and asthma-free :) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vid Hypersonic February 18, 2011 Author Share February 18, 2011 1) crocodile meat double boiled in some herbs. 2) dried fish maw with dried persimmon soup. Tried both before but not very useful. Condition is still the same. Brought my son to a TCM doc before and his condition improved a lot but recently the med from the doc doesn't seem to be working that well anymore. Maybe he's "used" to them and need something diff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good-Carbuyer 1st Gear February 18, 2011 Share February 18, 2011 Nver used them before. Insecticide not good at all if there are children at home. My youngest niece recovered from asthma only when my brother stopped spraying insecticide at home. Ex-classmate of mine said he got asthma the moment he stopped his daily running sessions. Hopes that helps. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
