Did you know that Asthma and Respiratory diseases are two of the leading causes of sickness in Aotearoa New Zealand and 1 in 8 children suffer from the condition.
Asthma is a condition that causes your airways to tighten or swell which leads to the creation of more mucus, which in turn makes it more difficult to breathe!
Symptoms of asthma can include:
* Wheezing
* Shortness of breath
* Tightness in chest
* A cough
