Learn with Physiopedia on #WorldAshthmaDay 👇 Asthma is a relatively common condition characterised by at least partially reversible inflammation of the airways and reversible airway obstruction due to airway hyperreactivity. It can be acute, subacute or chronic and exercise induced. Asthma is a major noncommunicable disease affecting children and adults. Symptoms can be controlled by inhaled medication and allow people with asthma to lead a normal, active life. Trigger avoidance can also help to reduce asthma symptoms. Related deaths mostly occur in low- and lower-middle-income countries, where under-diagnosis and under-treatment is a challenge.
