Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease that makes airways (bronchial tubes) particularly sensitive to irritants, and this is characterized by difficulty in breathing. People with asthma have extra sensitive or hyper-responsive airways. When a person experiences a worsening of their asthma symptoms, it is called an asthma episode or, in severe cases, an asthma attack. Learning the warning signs can often alert a sufferer in time to take preventive action, such as medication. The information provided here will help you better understand asthma, its symptoms, and how to cope with this disease. If you think you may have asthma, seek professional medical attention.

Asthma cannot be cured, but for most patients it can be controlled so that they have only minimal and infrequent symptoms and they can live an active life.

If you have asthma, managing it is an important part of your life. Controlling your asthma means staying away from things that bother your airways and taking medicines as directed by your doctor. By controlling your asthma every day, you can prevent serious symptoms and take part in all normal activities. If your asthma is not well controlled, you are likely to have symptoms that can make you miss school or work and keep you from doing things you enjoy.

If you have asthma, you should see your doctor regularly. You will need to learn what things cause your asthma symptoms to worsen and how to avoid them. Your doctor will also prescribe medicines to keep your asthma under control.
