Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition in which the airways (the passages through which air moves in and out of the lungs) become hypersensitive, often due to allergic reactions, and narrow, causing recurring coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath. It is sometimes mistaken for a severe cough or cold, which can delay proper treatment. Symptoms can worsen with exposure to yellow dust, fine particulate matter, or pollen. If you have recurring coughing or shortness of breath, please consult a pulmonologist or allergist.2026-06-26

Secondhand smoke exposure, also called passive smoking, means that a person who does not smoke breathes in smoke from a smoker's cigarette. Tobacco smoke contains thousands of chemicals, including carcinogens (substances that can cause cancer), and long exposure in an enclosed space can be harmful even to nonsmokers. If you are concerned about secondhand smoke, please consult a medical specialist.2026-06-26
