Bronchial Asthma Imported Japanese Flowers. HARRIS HARDWARE CO. THE WINCHESTER. Bronchial asthma, or expiratory dyspnoea, is a chronic af fection of the bronchi characterized by great difficulty in breathing, recurring at intervals, accompanied by wheezing sounds, a sense of constriction in the chest, and sometimes cough and expectoration. It is caused by an impingement of nerves of the eighth or ninth intervertebral zone, interfering with the motor function, producing the muscular contraction, and calorific, bringing about the hyperaemia and swelling. There may be chills, depression, vertigo, bronchial or thoracic oppressions, or nervous symptoms. Nocturnal attacks are very common. The patient awakes with a distressed feeling of a lack of breath, and great oppression in the chest. Wheezing sounds accompany the labored breathing, and the face becomes cyanosed. This is the expiratory dyspnoea, as the air is pre vented from escaping by the contraction of the smaller bron chi. This may last a few minutes, or several hours. The pulse is rapid and small, face is covered with perspiration, and when the attack is over, the patient falls into a deep sleep from the extreme exhaustion. Patients suffering with this incoordination usually develop an asthmatic hump, or marked prominence of lower cervical and upper dorsal vertebrae, and sometimes a barrel-shaped chest with prominent sterno-mastoid muscles. Adjustment of the subluxated vertebrae restores normal transmission of motor and calorific function to the bronchi, and thus the cause is removed, and the attacks cease. If you are suffering from this malady ,see your Chiropractor at once, and have the cause adjusted. Lamar S. Brown Chiropractor
