Understanding Asthma

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory condition of the airways, often triggered by allergens, pollution or stress. It causes narrowing and swelling of the airways, leading to coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath.

Asthma can be well controlled with accurate diagnosis and proper inhaler therapy.
