Uncontrolled asthma doesn’t just mean more wheezing and coughing—it can have serious long-term consequences. When asthma isn’t properly managed, it often leads to frequent absences from school or work, emergency hospital visits, and in severe cases, permanent damage to the lungs. Over time, repeated inflammation and airway narrowing can cause irreversible airflow limitation, making breathing harder even when you’re not having an attack. That’s why regular check-ups, proper inhaler use, and trigger avoidance are essential for anyone living with asthma.
