Asthma
More than 20 million Americans are estimated to have asthma, an immune disorder that affects the muscles around the bronchial tubes leading to the lungs. In a reaction to certain stimuli, the muscles tighten, narrowing the airways and causing them to become inflamed and clogged. The person finds breathing difficult, and wheezes and coughs. In severe episodes, the person finds it almost impossible to breathe and requires immediate medical attention.
