Asthma is a disorder caused by inflammation in the airways (called bronchi) that lead to the lungs. This inflammation causes airways to tighten and narrow, which blocks air from flowing freely into the lungs, making it hard to breathe.
Asthma is a common and undiagnosed problem in children and adults. By some estimates, about 5% of people have asthma.
Triggers are different for different individuals. Common ones include the following:
- Exposure to tobacco smoke,polluted air.
- Inhaling irritants such as perfume and cleaning products.
- Allergens such as molds, dust, and animal dander.
- Exposure to cold, dry weather.
- Stress.
- Medications including aspirin and non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as ibuprofen.
- An upper respiratory infection such as a cold, flu, or bronchitis
- Changes in weather can also trigger asthma attacks.
