Dr. Mario Zambrano, Pediatric Emergency Medicine Physician with Homestead Hospital, says if you do not follow a treatment plan, asthma can get worse with time. He highlights it is important to use the medications, like inhaled steroids, which have a bad connotation, but they help to avoid asthma attacks.

He also explains the symptom of an asthma attack is shortness of breath, because they cannot get air in their lungs nor out.
