Symptoms...: Symptoms of asthma include intermittent shortness of breath, sometimes only with exercise, wheezing, dry cough, etc. If you have any of these symptoms intermittently, see your doctor for diagnosis and treatment. Keep track of your surroundings and activity when the symptoms develop as this can help with diagnosis. If you smoke, quit ASAP!
