Bronchial Asthma | MCQs

Explanation

 Bronchial Asthma is a reversible inflammatory condition of the airways

Inflammation:

The primary characteristic of asthma is chronic inflammation within the airways, involving the lining of the bronchial tubes. 

Reversibility:

This inflammation and resulting airway obstruction can be reversed with medication, allowing airflow to improve. 

Triggers:

Asthma symptoms can be triggered by various factors like allergens, exercise, cold air, or viral infections. 

Symptoms:

Common symptoms include wheezing, coughing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath. 

Explanation

Acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) may be suspected as a possible cause of bronchial asthma.

Aspirin can trigger asthma symptoms in some individuals, particularly those with aspirin-sensitive asthma.
