Asthma causes the airways to become inflamed and easily irritated so that they react strongly to things to which you are allergic. When your airways react, they become narrower. Less air reaches your lungs, and breathing becomes difficult. Sometimes this reaction is life-threatening. Asthma can't be cured, but for most people, the symptoms can be controlled and they can live an active life. Good communication with your health care team becomes critical because managing and treating asthma is a life-long effort and can be a complex, ongoing challenge.
