The most likely reason for asthma after eating mushrooms is allergy to shiitake mushrooms.
In some people, after eating mushrooms, due to the body’s allergy to a certain component present in the mushrooms, a metabolic reaction occurs in our organism, which leads to a series of symptoms such as asthma, coughing, itching, abdominal pain and even vomiting.
Asthma occurs after eating mushrooms because of allergy to mushrooms, and after eating mushrooms, the bronchial tubes spasm and constrict, which leads to very poor expiration, which is the symptom of asthma.
When this happens, we can use emergency bronchodilators such as salbutamol and glucocorticosteroids such as prednisone, which can quickly relieve asthma symptoms. To avoid this symptom, mushrooms should be avoided.
If the patient’s asthma symptoms are severe, or if the symptoms persist and do not improve, the patient should go to the hospital for treatment. The above medications should be used under the supervision of a physician.
