Asthma is condition that affects the lungs. People with asthma usually have difficulty in breathing, and often cough a lot. This is because the airways-the pipes that take air to your lungs when you breathe-become narrower than usual. This may be caused by the tightening of the muscles in the wall of the airways, a swelling in the linings of the airways and by sticky mucus blocking them up. This makes it harder for the air to go in and out of your lungs, so you have difficulty in breathing.
