Hi, lybrate-user. Basically asthma is a genetic condition with some environmental influence. Symptoms are dry coughing, common cold repeatedly in cold weather & on exposure to certain antigens, which differs person by person, e. G. Dust, smoke, perfume smell, flower dust etc. In severe condition, patient gets difficulty in breathing & whistling sound from throat. You can not prevent the genetic influence, but if your family members have asthma, then one should avoid heavy dust exposure or smoking.
