What Causes Asthma Attacks

Last updated 1 month ago

Did you know that 22 million Americans are currently living with asthma? This common health condition can drastically impact your life if you are unprepared and unaware of how to properly deal with it. If you find that you have difficulty breathing, or if you wheeze when you walk, run, or climb stairs, watch this video to learn about the causes of asthma attacks.

Asthma is characterized by a chain reaction that begins with inflammation of the bronchial tubes. This causes a constriction of the airways, making it difficult for sufferers to breathe. As a result of such attacks, the lungs experience increased sensitivity to allergens and respiratory irritants, which can trigger further inflammation.
