OVERVIEW:
There is not only one cause for asthma. Two of the most common causes of asthma may be hereditary or an allergic condition. Flare ups are different from person to person and can include coughing or wheezing attacks, trouble sleeping caused by shortness of breath. Asthma can be induced by exercise, environmental factors such as chemical fumes, gasses, or dust, or it can be allergen induced.

SYMPTOMS:
Asthma triggers are different from person to person and can include airborne allergens such as dust, mold, animal hair or dander. It can also be triggered by chemicals in the environment and air pollutants, smoke, physical activity, cold air, other health conditions, expressing strong emotions, or different medications. Symptoms include, coughing while sleeping or laughing, difficulty breathing, tightness in the chest, shortness of breath, or wheezing. It is important to receive the proper treatment for asthma so other serious health conditions do not develop overtime. Treatment will also help get back to an everyday, action filled life.
