- Severe wheezing — An archaic medical term of oriental or regional origin, rarely used in the past within certain popular glossaries or traditional recipe books to designate a type of respiratory ailment, a severe whooping cough, asthmatic suffocation, or a pulmonary congestion marked by wheezing. In an old structural-pathophysiological sense, the word described the blockage of airways caused by the accumulation of phlegm or cold humors, treated with concentrated medicinal plant infusions and steam inhalations.
