    Asthma, also known as Bronchial Asthma, is a chronic respiratory condition characterized by inflammation and narrowing of the airways, leading to difficulty in breathing. Symptoms include wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and coughing, which can be triggered by allergens, exercise, cold air, or stress. Effective management often involves the use of inhalers containing bronchodilators and corticosteroids to reduce inflammation and open up the airways.
