Best Ayurvedic treatment for Pulmonary edema

Pulmonary edema

Pulmonary edema from the point of view of Ayurveda

Pulmonary edema is the accumulation of fluid in the lungs. This can make breathing difficult.

When you inhale, your lungs should be filled with air. In the case of pulmonary edema, they fill with fluid. When this happens, oxygen from the air cannot get from the lungs into the bloodstream where it is needed.

There are two main kinds of pulmonary edema: cardiogenic and noncardiogenic.
