Asthma Conditions
Asthma is an allergic reaction to substances, and may manifest through the lungs where the patient experiences difficulty in breathing. It may also be in the form of allergic rhinitis, where an attack of sneezes occurs. Asthma may also manifest in the skin, which is less dangerous than a lung asthma, but have similar effects – swelling.
Asthma is also hereditary – it is passed on through the family blood line. It is also possible for siblings to have the condition all at the same time. It is likely for children of “asthmatics” to manifest one of the three conditions mentioned above.
