Are you able to recognize most of the symptoms that asthma can show? While some of the symptoms might be very visible and easy to self diagnose, others might appear deceptive and misleading as they can mimic symptoms that are totally unrelated to asthma. Have you ever had the situation where you are fine one minute and then coughing and gasping for air the next, almost as if without warning? Chances are, a symptom has already appeared prior to the attack, you just missed or misread the signs your body was giving you.

Asthma attacks occur in people of any race, age, or gender. Whatever type or cause, asthma symptoms are generally the same. Adults who do not have it may develop asthma due to prolonged exposure to triggers. Triggers include, but are not limited to, smoke, chemical fumes, molds, pollen, allergens, and triggers in the work place. Symptoms include coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath, and chest pains.
