Asthma is defined as an inflammatory disorder in the body's airways, which then causes shortness of breath, chest constrictions, hacking and wheezing attacks. Whenever a person has an asthma attack, the muscles around their airways constrict and the lining of the air passages swells. This cuts down on the amount of oxygen that the person is able to breathe. With sensitive people who have asthma, an attack can be triggered by inhaling allergy-causing substances.
