Asthma

Asthma

Asthma is a chronic condition that inflames and narrows your airways, leading to wheezing, breathlessness, chest tightness, and coughing—especially at night or during exercise. Effective management often combines quick-relief inhalers (short-acting bronchodilators) with daily controller medications (inhaled corticosteroids, long-acting bronchodilators, or combination inhalers), and in severe cases may include biologic therapies or leukotriene modifiers. A personalised asthma action plan helps you recognise triggers, adjust treatment, and know when to seek help.
