This video features an overview of asthma and also touches on some of the common elements that can cause asthma. Though genetics play a large role in whether you will or won’t develop asthma, there are several other situations that can cause the condition:
- Early childhood infections (measles, mumps, pneumonia, scarlet fever, etc)
- Chemical exposure from air pollution (paint fumes, second hand smoke, etc)
- Insufficient immune system development (exposure to second hand smoke as an infant, poor nutrition, etc)
Watch this video for a break down of what asthma is, how you get asthma and how best to treat the condition:
