BRONCHIAL ASTHMA
CAUSES |
|
|
The symptoms of asthma can be set off by
a variety of different triggers.
These include:
- exposure to allergens (substances
that trigger a reaction),
- physical exertion,
- breathing in cold air,
- an infection,
- a reaction to certain medicines.
For many people with asthma,
especially children, an allergy to house dust mites and animal hair
or fur is common. If you have allergic asthma, you or other family
members may well also suffer from eczema or hay fever. For more
information see the separate BUPA factsheets on these topics. |
