The Respiratory System Protocols

 

The respiratory system consists primarily of the nasal passages, sinuses, main bronchi, bronchioles and the lungs themselves.  The conditions affecting the respiratory system that may benefit from the use of the herbal remedies fall into two main categories: inflammation or infective.  Within this we also include allergies, since although the approach is slightly different, the end result is still one of inflammation.  Thus, the common conditions seen by the practitioner of herbal medicine are asthma, sinusitis, acute and chronic bronchitis, hayfever and related allergy problems.

 

SINUSITIS:

Sinusitis is an inflammation and often secondary infection of one or more of the cavities located within the skull behind the nasal passages.  These cavities become fluid filled, providing an ideal environment for bacteria to grow and leading to symptoms.  The repeated swallowing of the infected mucus may spread the infection and lead to a bronchitis.

 

Factors Affecting Sinusitis:

-         Smoking, airborn irritants and allergies cause the membranes in the nose to swell, blocking the entrances to the sinuses.

-         A dry environment leads to swelling and irritation of the nasal passages

 

Symptoms and Signs of Sinusitis:

-         Pain and headache behind the eyes

-         Stuffy nose with possible discharge

-         Post nasal drip

-         Bad breath
