Asthma is a condition where the person's lungs don't function correctly. Symptoms of this include excessive coughing, wheezing, tightness in chest, or lack of breath. This can be caused if:


 * The person has had a blood relative, including a parent or sibling with asthma.
 * Having allergic conditions such as atopic dermatitis or allergic rhinitis.
 * Being overweight, usually by eating McDonald's every day.
 * Being a smoker or exposed to secondhand smoke.
 * Working with or being exposed to exhaust fumes or other pollutants. This includes occupational triggers such as chemicals present in farming or hairdressing.
