  • Asthma is a condition in which your airways narrow and swell and may produce extra mucus. This can make breathing difficult and trigger coughing, a whistling sound (wheezing) when you breathe out, and shortness of breath. For some people, asthma is a minor nuisance.

  • Asthma-COPD Overlap.
  • Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction (EIB).
  • Nonallergic Asthma.

Typically, it develops during childhood, but it can affect you at any age. People who have allergies or a parent or close family member with asthma are more likely to have the condition. More boys have asthma than girls, but it's more common in women than in men.

Treatment:

Treatments for asthma fall into three primary categories:

  • breathing exercises
  • quick-acting treatments
  • long-term asthma control medications

  • Buteyko Breathing Technique.
  • Papworth method.
  • Garlic.
  • Ginger.
  • Honey.

Though fresh fruit, especially oranges and apples, can help control your asthma, the sulfites that help preserve dried fruit could make the condition worse for some people. Alcohol (especially red wine), shrimp, pickled vegetables, maraschino cherries, and bottled lemon juice also often have sulfites.
