Is Asthma Curable
I have asthma since childhood. Have tried all forms of medicine from Ayurveda in Kerala, Allopathy, Homeopathy, Unani. Medicines work for sometime with some doctors and then it stops responding later. Sometimes it responds immediately on first visit, sometimes it works after couple of months. I'm really fed up now. Taking Cipla capsule inhalers in case of emergency. I had visited a seminar by doctors in early 2000 and there Allopaths had said its not curable. Also, couple of allopathy meds had created side effects. Have shown to good Homeopaths as well. Is there any test which can find out the allergen causative for a particular patient? I'm in the verge of breaking down now. I cannot take regular baths as it aggravates the issue, stay away from cold foods, going out in winters, lot many things. Currently not in Delhi as well. I live in a rural side in Odisha. Pollution scenario is kind of ruled out as well. Please help

Hi Asthma symptoms are controlled by regular medication . But symptoms are aggregated by triggers like both indoor and outdoor pollution and allergens. If u want to know the allergens go for skin prick test.
