Asthma

People with asthma experience episodes of wheezing, shortness of breath, coughing, chest tightness, and fatigue due to the narrowing of their airways.

This condition affects both children and adults and can appear at any age or stage of life. While there is no cure for asthma, it can usually be well controlled, allowing most people with the condition to stay active and lead healthy lives.

Typical asthma symptoms include:

• A persistent cough, especially at night
• Wheezing during exhalation and sometimes during inhalation
• Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, sometimes even at rest
• Chest tightness, making it hard to breathe deeply
