What is Asthma?

Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition that causes inflammation and narrowing of the airways, leading to difficulty breathing, wheezing, coughing and shortness of breath. Asthma symptoms can vary from mild to severe and may be triggered by allergens, exercise, stress, or environmental factors. While asthma cannot be cured, it can be managed with the right combination of medications and lifestyle adjustments.
