Asthma is a common, long term inflammatory disease of the airways of the lungs - which you've probably heard of before, and I expect you'll know somebody with it too, your mum, your dad, your brother, your sister, your cousin, your teacher or maybe you're friend! It's a very common condition.

This particularly affects me during Hayfever season, but can affect me often during my day to day life too. I carry a reliever and a preventer every day to prevent and treat my attacks!
