Asthma, Bronchitis, Mississauga

Asthma and Bronchitis are two different diseases, but they both affect the lungs. Bronchitis is inflammation of the airways in the lungs, while asthma is a group of symptoms that makes breathing difficult.

Asthma is a common lung disease that affects people of all ages.  The cause of asthma is unknown, but it may be related to the immune system or genetics. It is estimated that asthma affects 3 to 5 percent of the population worldwide, and its prevalence increases with age.

Asthma can be triggered by a number of factors, including race, gender, genetics, environment and other diseases like eczema.

Asthma is a chronic condition that may be managed with medical treatment, but it can also cause complications, like pneumonia, which can lead to death.

There are an estimated 150 million people with asthma around the world.

Asthma is a chronic disease in which the airways of the lungs are inflamed. Symptoms include wheezing, chest tightness and coughing. People with asthma can have trouble breathing during exercise and other times of stress, when they may feel like they can’t catch their breath.

COPD is a disease of the lungs caused by persistent inflammation and scarring of the lungs over time. Chronic cough, shortness of breath and wheezing are some of the signs that someone may have COPD.
