Asthma is a common long-term chronic inflammatory health condition of the airways which disrupts the normal flow of air as it leaves or enters the lungs when breathing.
Causes of Asthma
Though there is no known single cause for asthma, but there are a number of risk factors that are believed to contribute asthma. Some of the leading risk factors of asthma include:
Genetics- there is enough evidence to prove that a family history of asthma is a strong indicator of whether or not an individual will be diagnosed with this condition.
Environment- environmental factors such as pollen, exposure to tobacco smoke, dust, low air quality, mold, animal fur/hair and even cold air can in most cases trigger asthma.
Occupation- there are certain professions require frequent exposure to gases, dust or other harmful chemicals that may trigger asthma attacks. For example, people who do painting, landscaping, woodworking, or farming are more susceptible to developing asthma.
There is also enough evidence that certain exercises such as long distance running and cycling may cause symptoms of asthma to appear. Also, stress has been suspected to be a common trigger of an asthma attack.
Its been also found that symptoms of asthma attack are more severe during late night or early morning and less during the day.
