Asthma is a lung disease that causes the narrowing of the airways. People who have asthma have very sensitive airways that react to different triggers, which causes it to become difficult to breathe. When an asthmatic person comes in contact with their trigger, such as smoke, pet hair, perfumes, pollens, their airways begin to narrow and excess mucus is produced. The muscles in the airway tighten and in some cases spasm. This makes it hard for the person to breathe and causes a lack of oxygen in the body.
