What is Asthma? Asthma is a long lasting inflammatory disease of the airways. It causes heightened sensitivity in the airways which can cause them to tighten and secrete excess mucus which can irritate breathing. Inflammation can also occur which can cause narrowing or the airways and less gas exchange.
