What happens to the lungs during an asthma attack?

It all starts when pollen or another allergen works its way down your airway. As it moves past the cilia, the pollen sticks to your lungs. In response to the foreign matter, your body sends immune cells to the area.

When they attach to the pollen, they explode like a grenade, and call in more white blood cells to investigate. That migration of white blood cells to the area causes the area to inflame and move mucous into the lung, and chemicals into the immediate area, including near the muscles. When that happens, the muscles in the area become red, swollen, and more likely to go into spasm-which constricts the bronchi to trap air in the alveoli, which causes the plastic kazoo sound of trying to force air through the small opening.

Of course, the scariest part of asthma is an attack. While asthma may be mild, an attack-a period of time when it's extremely difficult to breathe-may last for several minutes or even up to a few days. Severe attacks can be fatal, but that doesn't mean you need to live in fear of attacks.

In fact, many treatments can help asthma patients enjoy life performing their normal activities.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
