Asthma which is usually caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors is known as a long-term inflammatory disease of the airways of the lungs. Symptoms which may occur several times per day or during the week include wheezing, coughing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath. There is no known cure for asthma, it could only be controlled. Symptoms could be prevented by avoiding triggers, such as respiratory irritants or allergens, and suppressed with inhaled corticosteroids. Asthma often starts from childhood, and the rates have unfortunately, increased in the past several years.
