Chronic disease: In many, asthma is a chronic disease characterized by airway inflammation. Anything that changes in life can alter the severity of asthma. In patients with chronic asthma, the anchor of therapy should include anti-inflammatory therapy such as inhaled steroids or montelukast. A home peak flow meter can help to monitor changes in asthma severity.

Anything's possible,: ....But it's more likely that if your asthma is worsening then you are reacting to something in your environment or in your food. In any case, see your doctor if your symptoms are worsening. There are few worse feelings than the inability to breath.
