This inflammation is often triggered by allergens, exercise, cold air, or irritants.

More on this from Mayo Clinic: [Mayo Clinic on Asthma Causes](https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-c...) 3. *How is Asthma Treated?* Treatment typically includes *inhalers* (bronchodilators for quick relief, and corticosteroids for long-term control). Asthma management also involves lifestyle changes to avoid triggers. Check out the American Lung Association’s guide: [Asthma Treatment Guide](https://www.lung.org/lung-health-dise...) 4. *Myth #1: Asthma is Just a Childhood Disease* While many cases start in childhood, asthma can develop at any age.
