Asthma is a common chronic respiratory disease that leads to difficulty breathing due to the presence of inflammation and bronchoconstriction. It’s often triggered by allergens, irritants or infections and in some occupational settings, employees may develop asthma or experience exacerbations because of airborne irritants, such as smoke or certain chemical agents (e.g., ash, pesticides, mineral dust, sawdust, etc.). The treatment of asthma focuses on controlling inflammation, preventing bronchospasm and minimizing exposure to environmental triggers.
