A member asked:
Can you get asthma in adults without having symptoms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not sure about quest: One of the primary diagnostic criteria for asthma are symptoms. Can asthma occur at any age- yes.But without any symptoms why would you think you have asthma? I either case a simple spirometry test and oral history can confirm or rule out asthma.
