For the sake of Tujili, Ms. Liu, who suffers from asthma, stopped taking the medicine without authorization during the Chinese New Year, and after a week, she felt chest tightness and wheezing, and her symptoms became more and more serious, so she hurried to Wuhan Donghu Hospital for treatment. After examination and consultation by the attending doctor, it was judged that it was an acute asthma attack caused by unauthorized withdrawal of medication.
Ms. Liu, 54, was diagnosed with asthma last year and has been taking anti-asthma medication** every day for a year, and her condition has been relatively stable. I heard that taking medicine in the New Year was unlucky, so she stopped taking medicine on her own since Chinese New Year's Eve. The first few days were fine, but after four or five days of stopping the medicine, Ms. Liu began to feel chest tightness and wheezing from time to time, but she felt that it was not too serious, and she wanted to insist on waiting for the Lantern Festival to resume taking medicine. In the next two or three days, Ms. Liu gradually coughed, and on the 25th, she had difficulty breathing, her lips turned purple, and her wheezing became louder and louder. The family was very worried and rushed her to Wuhan Donghu Hospital for treatment. After examination and questioning by the attending doctor, it was judged that Ms. Liu's asthma attack was caused by the unauthorized withdrawal of the drug.

Hu Fen, director of the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine of Wuhan Donghu Hospital, introduced that bronchial asthma is a chronic non-specific inflammation of the airways.
In recent cold weather, patients with respiratory diseases should pay special attention to keeping warm and taking medicine according to the doctor's instructions. Hu Fen emphasized that patients who need to adhere to long-term regular medication should not stop or reduce their medication at will. At the same time, it should be noted that some people feel that they have taken medicine and indulge themselves to eat, drink and have fun, which exceeds the physical load, which will still affect their physical health and may cause irreversible damage in serious cases.
