Asthma is a chronic lung disease characterized by inflammation and narrowing of the airways. This condition can lead to recurrent episodes of coughing, wheezing, breathlessness, and chest tightness. While the exact cause of asthma remains unknown, it is believed to be influenced by a combination of genetic and environmental factors.
Causes of Asthma:
- Genetics: A family history of asthma increases the risk of developing the condition.
- Environmental Triggers: Allergens (pollen, dust mites, pet dander), respiratory infections, air pollution, and tobacco smoke can trigger asthma symptoms.
- Occupational Exposure: Certain workplaces with airborne irritants can lead to occupational asthma.
- Physical Activity: Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction affects some individuals.
- Stress and Emotions: Emotional stress can exacerbate asthma symptoms.

Asthma symptoms vary depending on the severity of the condition and can occur intermittently. Common symptoms include:
- Shortness of breath: Difficulty breathing, especially during physical activity or at night.
- Wheezing: A whistling or squeaky sound when breathing, especially during exhalation.
- Coughing: Persistent coughing, often worse at night or early in the morning.
- Chest tightness: Feeling of tightness or pressure in the chest.
- Difficulty sleeping: Asthma symptoms can disturb sleep, especially if triggered during the night.
