Asthma can significantly impact a person’s ability to perform daily activities, such as work, school, or household tasks. This may be due to symptoms like shortness of breath, chest tightness, and fatigue, which can make even simple activities challenging and exhausting.

A decreased ability to perform daily activities can also contribute to feelings of frustration, stress, and social isolation. It’s crucial to address these challenges by working closely with a healthcare professional to develop a personalized asthma management plan.
