Common Symptoms of Asthma<\/p>\n
Asthma is a condition that greatly affects your ability to breath properly. The symptoms can vary greatly in severity and in how often they occur. Often people that have less severe asthma may not even realize that they are living with the disorder. They may simply think their breathing issues are normal and just a part of life.<\/p>\n

Asthma constricts the airways that connect your nose and mouth and that travel to your lungs. Certain things cause these airways to swell and thus not allow the proper air flow through the passageways. Some things that can inflame the area are animal dander, mold, cigarette smoke, infection, pollen and even cold air. Once the airways are inflamed because of the trigger, the surrounding muscles will also often tighten. This creates even less space for air to pass freely and makes breathing very difficult. If this seems to occur frequently, an asthma doctor should be consulted for treatment.<\/p>\n
