Best Pulmonologist Thrissur and Professor of  Asthma Allergy  Centre Thrissur  Dr Kurian Thomas explains;

Asthma Allergy Centre Thrissur Kerala data was Analyzed by Best Pulmonologist Thrissur  .   We analyze from the last 27 years . It  shows that in Thrissur, Ernakulam, Kochi , Palakkad, Kozhikode and Malappuram asthma is becoming   more frequent . So also it is getting  more severe in many patients. The prevalence of Allergy type asthma is increasing in Kerala. From our clinic records and available data conclusion. Almost 20% of children and 10% of adults have some form of Allergy and Asthma . This occurs mainly as Allergic Sneezing , and Asthma .This is agreed by most Pulmonologists from Thrissur and Kerala.

Allergic Asthma is a often long lasting inflammatory disease of our pulmonary airways. In this condition  our pulmonary airways narrow and swell . There is production of  more sputum or mucus than normal. This makes our breathing difficult and trigger coughing . Also wheezing and shortness of breathlessness occurs.
