Abstract Asthma as a clinical entity has been known to the medical world since antiquity. Many physicians have described its exact symptomatology with aggravating and ameliorating factors, its epidemiology at that time and some other factors, but they could not know the exact cause of this condition. Many hypotheses were formed for the causes of this condition, some of which include effects of evil eye, wrath of devils, bad effects of some food etc., even till date, there are many etiologies of this condition has been noted, the exact cause of asthma is not determined. There are many influences that act with each other to produce this condition. Modern system of medicine believes in local concept of disease. They believe in materialistic concept of disease. They believe that in any disease condition the organs and tissues affected are affected solely, and they don’t have any correlation with other parts. So they try to manage bronchial asthma with anti-inflammatory and anti-histaminic medicines as maintenance therapy and bronchodilators to curb the acute exacerbation. Steroidal agents which are used are the potent anti-inflammatory agents that suppress the inflammatory reaction, but in a way only suppressing manifestation of disease, weakening the immunity and constitution of the patient and thus making him prone to more life threatening conditions as manifested by airway remodeling, fibrosis of airway basement membrane and decreased responsiveness of the airway smooth muscles leading to emphysematous changes superadded to asthma. Same condition happens with anti-histaminics. These drugs act at local level and do not give permanent relief. These drugs give temporary symptomatic relief to the patient and do not remove the disease, i.e. the cause for hypersensitivity. Among all medical systems for treating diseases, homeopathic system is most efficacious. It is based on natural observations, rational experiments, and logical inferences. It works on the basis of similia similibus curenture, the nature’s law of cure. In homeopathic system of medicine we consider disease as a whole, with its causes, the process, along with constitutional totality of the person and not the local manifestations of disease. Mind, body and spirit, these are called trinity of life. When considered together, they form the constitution of the person. They are in interaction with one another and responsible for maintaining life. Any defect in function of any of them cause dis-ease. Medicine selected on these bases removes the disease permanently and corrects the constitutional deficit/ miasm from the person, as an ideal cure preached by our master, Dr. Hahnemann. Miasms are the fundamental cause of the chronic diseases. There are basically 3 miasms described by Dr. Hahnemann, namely psora, sycosis, and syphilis. Initially, during the early days of practice, Dr. Hahnemann faced some obstacles to the permanent cure in chronic cases. This miasmatic block can be removed with proper anti-miasmatic remedies.Thus, we have undertaken Asthma as our topic of study.
