Adult asthma is a chronic respiratory condition where the airways become inflamed and narrow, causing breathing difficulties. It can develop at any age and may result from allergies, respiratory infections, stress, or environmental triggers like smoke and pollution. Symptoms include wheezing, coughing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath. Proper management involves identifying triggers, using prescribed medications (such as inhalers), and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. While adult asthma can be lifelong, effective treatment and regular medical check-ups help control symptoms and prevent severe attacks. Early diagnosis and consistent care are essential for improving quality of life and reducing complications.
