Abstract
Asthma is a chronic obstructive inflammatory disease of the airways that causes breathing problems. In susceptible individuals, the disease is manifested by difficulty breathing, wheezing in the chest and coughing, associated with airway obstruction, which is often reversible, either spontaneously or as a result of therapy. The disease is characterized by increased reactivity of the bronchi to various stimuli. It occurs in episodes, i.e. acute exacerbations of the disease alternate with periods in which there are no asthma symptoms. Attacks occur when the inflammation worsens, usually because there is some provoking asthma factor in the immediate environment.
