Well, I have Asthma. Sometimes you mau feel like there is something in your throat. Possibly it could be but most of the time it's fluid IN your lungs. Sometimes your chest is burning after being involved in some sort of physical activity. I would not say any other part but your lungs is being affected.

How is a persons lung capacity affected if the person suffers from asthma?
If you have well controlled asthma your lung function should be relatively normal between attacks. The way to develop well controlled asthma is to see your doctor on a regular basis, take your asthma medications exactly as prescribed. There are about 10-20% of asthmatics who may develop severe asthma, and this may be due to repeated uncontrolled asthma exacerbations or by other things, such as smoking cigarettes, that cause lung scarring, or chronic airway changes, withing the lungs. These severe asthmatics may develop some degree of permanent loss of lung capacity. Otherwise, the only time your lung capacity will be diminished is while you are having an asthma attack.
Will clover honey help with an asthma cough?
No. Asthma is a disease that affects the lungs, not the throat. Only medication can help with asthma. Go to your doctor and he/she should prescribe medications for your asthma both for preventing it and for whenever your asthma flares up, such as a quick relief inhaler and a breathing machine for use with prescribed medication(s). Never take more than the prescribed dose on any medication. If your asthma symptoms persist or get worse, go to the emergency room or call 911 immediately.
