Disease Asthma, Exercise-Induced

Name Asthma, Exercise-Induced
Synonyms Asthma, Exercise Induced | Asthmas, Exercise-Induced | Bronchospasm, Exercise Induced | Bronchospasm, Exercise-Induced | Bronchospasms, Exercise-Induced | Exercise Induced Asthma | Exercise-Induced Asthma | Exercise-Induced Asthmas | Exercise Induced Bronchospasm | Exercise-Induced Bronchospasm | Exercise-Induced Bronchospasms
Definition Asthma attacks following a period of exercise. Usually the induced attack is short-lived and regresses spontaneously. The magnitude of postexertional airway obstruction is strongly influenced by the environment in which exercise is performed (i.e. inhalation of cold air during physical exertion markedly augments the severity of the airway obstruction; conversely, warm humid air blunts or abolishes it).
