Asthma can be triggered by allergies, exercise, cold air, emotional stress, or other factors. People with asthma may have shortness of breath, chest tightness, wheezing, and coughing. Asthma can be mild, moderate, or severe. It is a serious condition that can be deadly. There is no cure for asthma, but it can be controlled with medication. This review will discuss our perception of bronchial asthma based on theoretical characteristics such as its triggers, risk factors, symptoms, diagnostic tests, and genetic predisposition.
