Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways that causes symptoms such as wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and coughing, especially at night or in the early morning. These symptoms occur due to increased airway hyperresponsiveness and obstruction, and are often reversible with or without treatment. The human respiratory tract begins with the mouth and nose, uniting into the trachea that branches into the lungs. In the lungs, the trachea branches into the left and right bronchi, which further divide into smaller bronchioles and terminate in alveoli where gas exchange occurs.

and one to the right lung. After that, each will ramify again, the longer the course, the smaller up to 23
times and ended up in the alveoli, where gas exchange occurs, oxygen (O 2) into the blood vessel, and
carbon dioxide (CO 2) were excluded.
