Getting to Know Asthma, Bronchitis, and Pneumonia

What is Asthma?

Asthma is a long-term lung disease that causes the airways to become inflamed and restricted, making it hard to breathe. When someone has an asthma attack, their airways are smaller, they make more mucus, and the muscles around them get tighter. This makes it hard for air to get in and out of the lungs. Allergens including pollen, dust mites, and pet dander, as well as air pollution, cold weather, exercise, respiratory diseases, and stress, are all common causes.

Wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, coughing that doesn't go away (particularly at night), and trouble finishing sentences because you can't breathe are all signs. Asthma can't be cured, but it can be controlled well with the right treatment and avoiding triggers.

What is bronchitis?

Bronchitis is an inflammation of the bronchial tubes, which carry air to and from your lungs. It comes in two forms: acute bronchitis (typically caused by viral infections and lasting 1-3 weeks) and chronic bronchitis (a long-term condition often related to smoking or prolonged exposure to irritants)

Acute bronchitis symptoms include persistent cough (initially dry, then producing mucus), chest discomfort, mild fever, fatigue, and shortness of breath. Chronic bronchitis involves a productive cough lasting at least three months for two consecutive years, increasing mucus production, wheezing, and recurring respiratory infections.

What is Pneumonia?

Pneumonia is an infection that inflames the air sacs in one or both lungs, which may fill with fluid or pus. It can be caused by bacteria, viruses, or fungi, and ranges from mild to life-threatening, particularly in infants, elderly individuals, and those with weakened immune systems.

Symptoms vary but typically include high fever, shaking chills, cough with phlegm (may be greenish or bloody), sharp chest pain that worsens with breathing or coughing, rapid or difficult breathing, confusion (especially in older people), fatigue and muscle aches, and bluish lips or nail beds in severe cases.
