An immune disorder called asthma occurs when the muscles that surround the bronchioles constrict.

Asthma is a condition caused by genetic and environmental factors and represents the disease of the airways of the lungs. It is an inflammatory disease in which airways narrow and swell and produce extra mucus. Symptoms include wheezing, coughing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath.
