Bronchial Hyperreactivity

Bronchial hyperreactivity is a condition where the airways in the lungs become overly sensitive and react strongly to various triggers, such as allergens, smoke, or exercise. When exposed to these factors, the airways can constrict or become inflamed, leading to symptoms like wheezing, coughing, or shortness of breath. It's often seen in conditions like asthma, where the airways are prone to this excessive reaction. Managing bronchial hyperreactivity typically involves avoiding triggers and using medications to help relax and open the airways, making breathing easier.
