Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the bronchial tubes , causing bronchial tubes to narrow. Symptoms often come and go. When symptoms occur, it is called an asthma exacerbation. Common symptoms include wheezing , coughing , chest tightness, and shortness of breath. These symptoms vary in severity. Many times, an asthma exacerbation is so severe that respiratory failure requires intubation or death. However, if asthma exacerbations are not severe but the bronchial tubes are allowed to become inflamed and the bronchial tubes to narrow frequently, permanent bronchial blockage will eventually occur, which is difficult to treat.

Asthma is not contagious but can be passed on genetically. It is caused by chronic inflammation of the bronchial tubes that are unusually sensitive to triggers, causing symptoms of the disease. These triggers include allergens both inside and outside the household, such as air pollution, weather changes, germs, dust mites, cockroaches, grass pollen, weeds, smoke, UFABET, perfumes, liquids, chemicals, or pets, etc.
