Asthma

Asthma is a long-term and chronic lung condition that causes the airways to become inflamed and narrowed, making it difficult to breathe. It leads to recurring episodes of wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness and coughing, especially at night or early in the morning. Asthma can be triggered by various factors like dust, pollen, smoke, exercise or changes in weather. While it can’t be cured completely, asthma can be effectively managed with proper diagnosis, medication such as inhalers and avoiding known triggers allowing people with asthma to lead normal, active lives.
