Wheezing is the sound that happens when air in your lungs moves through constricted or obstructed air passages. Wheezing usually comes from the bronchioles - smaller tubes deeper in the lungs. Wheezing on the exhalation points to bronchiolar disease. On the inhalation stenosis from tumors, foreign bodies or scarring, especially if the wheezing is mono-tonal. Crackles are caused by the "popping open" of small airways and alveoli collapsed by fluid or mucus. The location of the wheezing (heard with a stethoscope or ear to the lung) may indicate the location of the problem. Smoking, asthma, infection, pneumonia and other lung ailments may be causes of wheezing. 2 out of 3 school children with recurrent wheezing/coughing have allergies.

ADDRESS ISSUES IN STAGE OF DISEASE 2

WHEEZING IS IN STAGE OF DISEASE 2 - AFFECTING BLOOD & EMOTIONS

Affecting Blood: Initially, imbalances are localized, often in the digestive tract. As an imbalance grows, it starts to affect your body systemically, via the blood. If you have symptoms in this category it means that your imbalances are starting to spread, have entered the bloodstream, and are now systemic. Pay particular attention to the biocharacteristics, tastes, and doshas out of balance systemically, so you know how to strengthen your body as a whole, and reduce physical stress on your organs. At this stage of imbalance you will begin to experience generalized discomfort, imbalanced emotions, and may develop sensitivities to temperature. It may take several weeks of strict adherence to a specific remedial diet to clear blood level imbalances. Blood cleansing herbs may reduce symptoms. A several day cleanse may shorten the recovery time.
