More than 300 million people around the world suffer from asthma, and around 250,000 people die from it each year. But why do people get asthma, and how can this disease be deadly? Christopher E. Gaw describes the main symptoms and treatments of asthma.
Lesson by Christopher E. Gaw, animation by Zedem Media.
People with asthma know the struggle of coughing so hard that it feels like they're vomiting their lungs out.
I once had to cough so hard, that I started coughing automatically and couldn't stop.
The Starco Shipper OMG IKR
When I cough too hard, I actually vomit.
That almost happened to me once
I coughed so hard I fractured my lower rib bone !
to the people that don’t know what asthma feels like, it feels like no matter how hard you try to breath, you can never get enough air. as an asthmatic, it is truly terrifying.
I know its uncomftorable, and a little painful, I have it heres a little tip, if you dont focus on it you wont know.
It feels like breathing through a straw
That must be horrible! I once had a shortness of breath while having sleep paralysis and I felt like I was dying , can't believe you guys have to deal with this 😞
Watching this made me run out of breath
yea
Asthma is a very annoying and scary condition. My worst experience was one night when I had an attack. I couldn’t tell anyone what was happening. The words just can’t come out. I saw everyone as tiny particles and lots of tears came down my cheeks. At that point, I felt I was going to die cox I was literally out of the world. I could only see little stars all around.
Luckily, I was rushed to the ER and I got better in a few hours. When I got fine, everything felt like a dream. I couldn’t explain to anyone. They only said I passed out.
Asthma is terrible. It can kill you in a flash.
I pray that anyone reading this doesn’t get caught up in this chronic condition.
That is so true, its horrifying especailly when you're young and don't fully understand whats happening to your body. I used to have pretty bad asthma attacks when I was younger. Coughing to the point of almost vomiting, coughing your lungs up, etc. It also doesn't help that you get all sweaty and are crying and now the room feels so stuffy.
I used to always be rushed to the ER when I was little at my grandmothers house because her house was near cornfields. This happened more than 3 times at least and it was horrible.
Now I'm glad my asthma attacks are less severe and I barely cough and know what to do even if I don't have my inhaler on me. It also helps I have a preventative one too! Good luck to you too hopefully this disease finds a cure soon!1
Omg I remember when I had a asthma attack at night so I started crying then I immediately rushed to the hospital but I did get better throughout the weeks
@@sosisdepressed7387 what do you do if you don't have your inhaler with you? I am interested in knowing this information
@@jamessmith6420we die... almost until your rushed to the hospital....or if ur asthma isn't severe .... maybe just being still and trying to breathe ....or take deep breaths
@@sosisdepressed7387 man I really hope somebody finds a cure.I'd pay my life savings for that😢
I came here because I had a relative who died because of asthma attacks and gosh! this is terrifying. It makes me anxious and overwhelmed as well, like how fragile these people are, in just one snap they may leave us. It makes me want to be healthier than ever and live a healthy lifestyle. To all people who are suffering from asthma, I salute you all for being so strong and for keeping up! Stay healthy! Keep safe! Be careful always and don't forget your medications. God is with us.
Where is your ur relative from?
BRAZIL!!! 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷😂😂
I just wanna thank whoever invented the inhaler cause it will be a whole lot different without it.
You spoke the truth
😭 truth
im 16 and have pretty much grown out of asthma but still get it sometimes and the inhaler is a gift from god lol
It cam in the new update
Is inhaler addictive ?
“300 million people have asthma”
Me: hey I’m one of them
“250,000 people die every year from asthma”
Me: *O H N O*
JackLostThe Y omllll
Exactly how I felt!! LOLOL
Me too 😭😭😭
Same
I had the same reaction lol
My uncle has asthma, and he almost died by an asthma attack. Thank god the doctors were able to save him. I thank you alot for explaining this disease.
As a person who has asthma, this is really true. When I was little I had asthma attack almost every night, I felt like I was cursed. Even my older brother has asthma and had asthma attack almost every night to. I couldn’t get enough air and I thought that I was gonna die. I always cried when I had an asthma attack. When you have asthma you also have a weak immune system. To the people who don’t have asthma, I’m glad you don’t, and have good prayers! To the person who invented the inhaler, I like to thank you!
Same I literally almost died I almost passed out
the worst feeling is when you want to explain to someone that you have asthma while you're having an attack, so you can't breathe even more and you seem so scared
so true
I've tried explaining it to my mum and I just started crying during an attack cause I was just panicking and she thought that made it worse
I have ist too and I am so sorry, because I know what it feels like. That‘s why I just tell others in advance (if I don‘t see it as a necessity ofc I don‘t, but it‘s a struggle too kinda, so I totally get it :/)
😭😭omg yes
@@denisewanyana6418 I believe freaking out do makes it worse. Or at least for me
As an asthmatic person, watching the animated boy breath was hard for me.
Yea ok
Me too
Same i felt bad just watching lol

Haha yess it was soo relatable
I don’t have asthma but my mom does. I see how much she struggles to breathe normally, especially now because of her bad heart. This video gives me a better understanding about what she goes through in her normal life. Thank you
your mom is proud of you
I recently had a 2 hour asthma attack at 1am in the morning and was sent to the hospital were I was treated and restored back to normal. as an asthmatic please remember to always have your inhaler near you at ALL times. And just a tip if you ever have an asthma attack try not to lay flay down on your stomach or back as it could increase your symptoms, making it even harder to breath.
As an asthmatic person, i thank the person who invented the inhaler.. It has literally saved me life on numerous occasions!

Yepp four year old me was in and out of the hospital pretty much daily due to my asthma
👍 when in childhood i got asthma attack I feel like I am gonna die because I had my empty inhaler with me
the inhaler is a gift from god

I don't have asthma and I feel really grateful. Prayers to those who do, may you live an easy life.
There's definitely a reason to why I came across this video on CZcams: czcams.com/users/Jyovis of Jyovis Ayurveda and I was very happy to see the results. I even followed few of the tips explained and it actually worked. Then I finally decided to contact on ...... (+917400446484) to cure my Problem from the root cause. The team really helped me a lot. Thank you Jyovis!
Thank you so much Raef Shuaib I hope that not only u ur family members n the whole world get rid of asthma
tnx alot i hope it goes tho
It sucks man. I'm 30 years old and have suffered my entire life, and it gets worse year over year. I've had a few ER visits during my early adulthood.
I went undiagnosed until my early 20s. I joined the military prior to the diagnosis, and really struggled. But I pushed my way through the training and physical fitness exams, barely passing the minimum requirements every time 😂. I always thought that my breathing was a struggle because I never exercised (clearly not the case). I'm not overweight and never had been, but I was not in shape, you know?
Anyway after I joined the military I DID get into shape (US Army). Yet the breathing problems not only continued, but they got worse. I barely graduated my basic training and secondary training (AIT at Fort Gordon in Georgia) entirely because of my poor pt performance.
My military career came to an end though when I collapsed during a run. I was transported to an emergency room off base, where they took scans, asked questions, and ran tests for a couple days, then diagnosed me with the condition.
The procedure to discharge me started immediately and only took a few days to process me out (general, not dishonorable or medical). I've contributed to struggle ever since.
I always feel like while I'm trying to inhale, my body is wanting to exhale, but also vice versa. So if any of you reading this think you may have it - go get tested asap! Don't wait like I did.
@@NG.4769 hmmmm lol
Best description I've ever seen on asthma. I'm having a bad attack today. This helps others understand. So many don't get it. I hear things like, I was sick once and it was hard to breathe. Doesn't even come close.

As someone with really, really bad asthma... It makes me happy to see this here, bringing awareness to it and hopefully pushing towards a better solution.
Yeah,but the comment section is stupid... I got asthma to and this video can help me tell other people, but the comment here most of them are jokes and stupid...shame..
No shit, fuck youtube comments. I only care if the OP channel sees my comment, not other people down here... Trying to spread awareness via youtube comment section is just plain retarded.
The world and the internet need more people like you... cheers.. :D
Carden A quick question, as asthmatic people start medical treatment, they end up having to take less and less medicine to feel better?
Vegan Krait yeah, I find if I have too much dairy, my asthma is worse. Too much dairy makes my tinnitus worse, too!
As someone who has asthma, the dramatic change in weather can effect you very much especially at winter.
Yes very true👍🏾
As someone who successfully healed from Severe Bronchial Asthma, these traumatic and uncomfortable situations during an attack is very real. Today that I'm well, I appreciate more of my every breath.
Please tell me how you recovered?

TED-Ed: Some of the many astma triggers include stress, exercise, cold weather, pollen, dust, fragrances...
Me: soo basically life
Why these triggers?
Charles Smith those triggers were the ones he mentioned in the video
@@ingridbentsen9094 Tell me about hyperinflation as an implication in causing fatal asthma attacks.
Charles Smith merry christmas🎄 🎁
i don t know how ima alive i have astma
when i was sick i got prescribed an inhaler. i can’t imagine having that feeling all the time. people with asthma, you’re so much stronger than us.
I have asthma, and like many, I couldn't always keep up with my peers physically. Because of this, I was bullied. I was always a bit more cautious, and I was aware of my condition, so I'd avoid certain activities out of concern for if I had an asthma attack. The video described the feeling well- the burning sensation in your chest, the struggle to breathe, and the many triggers, such as fragrances and pollen. Honestly, asthma is not easy to deal with, because you're prone to exhausting yourself a lot sooner, and things that your average person can do, such as a quick lap around the neighborhood or a walk up a flight or stairs, is hard to do at times, especially if you aren't used to doing such things. If you meet someone with asthma, please be considerate of their condition. Don't spray fragrances around them, allow them a chance to catch up if you're out walking or jogging, and don't treat people like us as a burden or something to make fun of.

Wt
Looool I’m 20 and first video I’ve watched, I’ve had it for so long just had an asthma attack so thought I really need to learn what it is🤣
Asthma does go away. I had it at my early childhood life but as grew closer to my teen years I was free of it. Never had issues with breathing ever since then or any symptom. Hope everyone with it gets free of it because it is very frustrating.
You had asmtha that goes away it’s a type of asmtha that goes away some types never go away you will always have them

Me too though not even kidding
Well frick!
Good thing there is people who post videos like these so other people can be more aware on things some people might be having to go through. I like watching informational videos and when I'm watching videos that affect people's lives in a negative way I feel more grateful for what I have and that I don't have any bad or life-threatening diseases; it scares me even trying to think what it would feel like.
Some people should be grateful for what they have and not speaking only for others
As someone who had heavy, bad asthma, I gotta say this is pretty accurate. The problem is that very few people understand the *psychosomatic* aspect of our affliction, even asthmatic themselves sometimes.
Man the animation was a wonderfull Story, the boy grows up and now he is a coach? Nice :)
N.A.Z. Noice*
It's not a heartwarming story plenty of people with asthma play sports or played sports as a child and plenty of people who played youth sports become youth sports coaches
Bartolo Colòn is god I didnt said anything about heartwarming
bartolo Colòn is god you ruined the story for me :(
MidnightOz He's white and she's black though.
When you have asthma and get told to do a 12 minute run in PE
I did it but felt like I was dying after
Brendan Lewis omg I just did that today for exactly 12 minutes, it was an endurance test
pe is good tho
Dude is the asthma is permanent?
Fusion Mask For me it is
Fusion Mask asthma can be permanent for some people but can also go away or be developed later on.
The relief once the inhaler hits 😌
I used o have ashma as a kid, this video made me remember all along how horrible it was. Touch my heart. Thank you.
*We dont vape we use nebulizer* 😎😎
Me too but yeah, sad! 😓
Lelelelelel what sucks even more is when you have to use it at night..... when everyone is sleeping............
Yup

When I was a child, I always have asthma almost every day, hence there wasn't a day when I wasn't coughing. This condition continued on up until my college days. I was actually dependent on inhalers but they barely help in actually relieving my symptoms for the entire day.
Having asthma grew a fear in me because I already had a classmate who succumbed to its symptoms.
Fortunately, when I started working, I was finally able to discover that if I drink Cetirizine every day, I do not get asthma attacks or minor coughing. But when I don't drink it, the asthma hits me. Since discovering that anti-allergy medications kept my symptoms at bay, I have never held any inhalers again nor did I need to go through nebulizer treatment. Whatever the allergy trigger is, that I don't really know.
you need to go to an allergy specialist. I have also been experiencing the same thing. I got dust mite allergy which makes my asthma worst. Anti-histamine might help you reduce the allergy symptoms, but you still need to know your allergy trigger.
You need to see a doctor because having cetrizine every day can cause side effects. And you can also develop resistance.
I am learning so much from watching your videos. Thank you so much for sharing this amazing source of information. This one is quite helpful.
Watching this video made my chest feel tight. Anyone else?
Same! XD
The sound effects were....triggering
It made *me* gassy.
Placebo effect - you're more aware of possible symptoms and so are more sensitive to them
You're probably fine. I hope you're fine. I'm just gonna leave now.

Basically, if you don't have asthma and don't understand, Imagine being a fish out of water. It hurts ;-;
Yeetus_The_ Feetus -_- I know
Too bad I don't know what being a fish out of water is like would you say it's like when your fall on your back and it takes your breathe away and it's kinda hard to breathe
I don’t have Asthma but that sounds painful. One of my friends at school had a massive asthma attack and almost stopped breathing.
True
or, as to be more relatable for most of us HUMANS, imagine being a human trying to breathe underwater.
You gasp for air, but its like there's water in your lungs instead, and you keep suffocating. yep.
The fact that this is illustrating what asthma is and feels like for me is amazing
my best friend has (mild) asthma and she especially doesn't like cold weather, thank you ted-ed for spreading awareness about it. as a person who doesn't have asthma, I don't know how it feels, but I can now support my friend when she needs it :)
As someone with pretty really bad asthma, It makes me happy to see this here bringing awareness to asthma and hopefully bringing it a better solution.
Yo bro,hope your are safe especially with Covid being around

I have never had an asthma attack but I had one today thank you for helping me understand what was happening today.
I have mild asthma and I have never used an inhaler in my life, not until yesterday because it got very hard to breathe due to pneumonia and I gotta tell you, it's literally like magic, you take a puff and suddenly, you're back to normal, not just that, but also gain immunity to all triggers for like 6 hours or something, inhalers do be op
When I get an asthma attack , i actually feel like dying because no matter how hard i breathe , i still feel like i couldnt breathe any air , like i still lack air for some reason and it sucks :"((
That's because you can't exhale all the air in your lungs. Try to fill your lungs to the top and then breathe a little bit more, that's how you feel when you have an asthma attack, right? You can do exhalation exercises during an attack to help you clear your lungs.
Exercise: (i didn't invent this, it is an exercise a PT gave me about 15 years ago)
Inhale to fill your lungs, form a small hole with your mouth (keeping your lips almost pressed) and try to exhale (it is supposed to feel hard to exhale this way) when you feel that you are running out of air to exhale tighted your belly. You have to exhale like your life depends on it when you feel that you have almost no air left. That last exhalation will last about 1 second.
Then you will feel the need to cough. Don't cough yet! Repeat the exercise 2 or 3 more times and then you will cough and that will be the best feeling in the world.

I have migraine and asthma so that sucks
And chest pains and dizziness.
Thanks for the video. My friends and I were intriguied and our needs were satisfied. Much love from Brazil!
I have asthma myself and I really appreciate this video because one it brings attention to those with asthma and two, I understand how my attacks and breathing works better.
They've forgotten the worst bit. Not being able to breathe involuntarily and then not being able to sleep as a result.
ziji helium I wake up fucking wheezing I HATE SLEEPING
Connor Games dude I had the same thing then the doctor gave me an advair inhaler that I take twice a day I had athsma lots before but that stuff is my soul it is amazing I used to take my inhaler like 4-8 times a day now like 4 times a week is awsome
I've been up for so long, it's 2:36 and i still havent been able to help my breathing, it sucks
Kay cass if you have a nebulizer try that if not then take a clean blanket and get the air you breath as warm as possible, if not try a inhaler... and if that doesn't work see your doctor
ziji helium Would a respirator help with that?
It's great to actually understand what actually happens when i have an asthma attack, thanks!

I was diagnosed with asthma in 2016, and have been using the medications since then, and my asthma is now under control!
My asthma never really makes me cough. It's more just that I struggle to inhale. Exhaling is easy enough though. Guess it affects people differently.
Me too!!
Interesting. It makes me cough several times per day. So it definitely affects people different.
Heman Rocks this seems completely legitimate
@@nathan8208 what.........
Yup, i get mild attack at nights when there is seasonal change (pollins) right after cold or cough

It feels like the breathing through a straw almost everyday
My god I felt that
Breathing a straw is normal
So true
Accurate
It’s funny you say that cause my science teacher had us do that in class. She said it simulates what someone with asthma feels like. I have asthma and I tried to breathe through a straw and it felt like I wasn’t breathing at all.
For those who use an inhaler, make sure you use your spacer. It makes a world of difference. Especially if u feel that when u use the inhaler by itself and it isn’t helping or helping enough. The spacer helps deliver all of the medicine with the rest getting lost throughout the air. Trust me, I was dealing with this and it was hard for me to get enough medication but when I used my spacer i felt so much better
Thank you so much, this really helped my science presentation!
Every time I use the inhaler, I thank the guy wholeheartedly who invented this magical device. I would not be here today to write this comment without this.

My asthma has gotten so much better over the past couple years. I went from taking two puffs every morning and evening to maybe one puff a week. Exercise never triggers an attack but for some reason laughing does. I always have to be careful when I spend time with my friends because there is always a chance that I laugh too much and end up in the hospital.
Keep discipline, keep control of your life. No disease can control how much enjoyment you can have in life. (Keep your inhaler close, take allergy shots, Zyrtec and live on. )
I have the same thing never been in hospital though. Allergies are very severe for me cat and dogs mold a mold b ragweed and I cant laugh super hard. Its fine we live on, serve society make a meaningful difference. (I am saying this for reassurance, not to downplay your symptoms)
What I hate as well is family members then have pets with the very allergen that I have makes me think there just doing it to annoy me. Then act like "ohhh I did not know, then proceed as normal no change in action, I guess they made their decision, Its just hard for me to accept the delusion (Moving on is a very important skill I realized).
Some people are just insensitive, oblivious there is no love in there heart merely calculations.
@@Turnpost2552 it really sucks when people are insensitive about our triggers. Luckily for me, I've had great success in dealing with my allergies because of a new treatment I underwent recently. It has honestly made such a huge difference in the way I live my life. I don't ever have to worry about falling asleep without taking my inhaler again. I've had moments where I have made spontaneous plans with friends and left the house for days without my inhaler. A couple of years ago, the anxiety from not carrying my inhaler alone would have triggered an attack. Life is honestly so much easier when I don't have to constantly keep my disease in check.
lol same. i get an attack when i laugh too much and exercise doesn't trigger my asthma
@@tanishqchakravorty4400 which new treatment are you talking about.please tell something
Omg im sorry this is so wholesome hilarious yet sad
I have asthma and when I cough so hard it makes my vision look different.

I was rushed to the hospital yesterday due to severe asthma attack and they gave the the second type of inhaler mentioned on the video. Srly, i really thought i was dying and i can feel that my body was tightening due to lack of air. I was already praying hard that time. I hope people who have asthma could live better lives. It is always better to consult your doctors than having self-medications.
My best friend got asthma and she survived. I am thanking God that she survived.
For my people who also have asthma you already know that feeling when you use your inhaler and the air just seems more fresher
edit: yo that's insane 1k likes
The inhaler literally purifies the air 100 percent
yes
omg yesss, esp when you feel like you’re about to pass out then you take that sweet sweet puff of spicy air in a can 😫😫😫
Ikr but the inhaler has some steroids in it so not to keep using if not necessary
EVEN HERE?? JOJO FANS EVERYWHERE I CANT 😂
I FIND ONE EVERYWHERE THESE DAYS
Breathing is one of those things that we shouldn't have to work so hard to do, but it's really tough sometimes. I find that it's less painful to stop breathing when I'm having an asthma attack, probably because of the "too much air in the lungs" - which is extra hard when it's triggered by anxiety.
my asthma attacks are usually triggered by my anxiety too!
I get asthma attacks from stress, and sometimes it's just because i laughed too much and my lungs start to swell up. It really does feel like my lungs are full but my heart doesn't get enough air. Thanks to whoever invented the inhaler.
+1, thanks for the validation! It's the only effective way to stop it quick for me so far
You guys cant breath when youre anxious? Thats bad.
I have a natural recipe that treats shortness of breath permanently and irreversibly
i suffer from asthma so this is really helping me understand it more
I have asthma and no I’m not self diagnosing I have been clarified by a doctor for about 9 years more than my whole life and this is just so true to me and helps me
Where are my inhaler brothers? 😂
Here, lol.
Rip to you people who have a high chance of being dead soon
Hani UwU here don't talk to me
Umbreon meh, atleast I can rest soon, plus I do have asthma but I don’t use my inhaler, when I don’t really have trouble breathing and I don’t cough, maybe I’m lucky?
Hani UwU right here
*Who is here because they feel like they are breathing through a straw their whole life*
@Cynthia panals I will put you on "unwanted ads" and "unsafe ads source"

WOW... this is rly relatable..

I have asthma and Inhalers are literally a gift from god... I would have been dead 5 years by now without it
@@demarcusvonlaquaviouslxix7954 focusing on the situation < focusing on the capitalization
I have asthma but i don’t take inhaileres
Doctored tell me I have asthma but I didn’t know it’s that much of a case
I had asthma since I was born
Same
When I have an asthma attack I feel like I'm going to die. It's awful.
I feel lucky to not have asthma
mumble yeah you should... I can’t sleep my sisters don’t believe me..
@@angelzxxiix9873 do your parents know?
It ain't that bad
Heman Rocks not interested but ty
It was explained very well so I subscribed right away hehe thank you!
I was diagnosed with asthma at age 2. I'm about to turn 23 and it's terrible. I sometimes feel like I'm going to be sick if I cough too hard at once. Living in the Midwest doesn't help it since the weather seems to change every 5 seconds. I still have my old breathing treatments I've been taking since I was a toddler and luckily it's fairly stable now
Wish you good life
Imagine your body being so suicidal it forgets to breath
Breathe*
@@jaelynnkim1801 no that was intentional
@@iDk-dp1bi oh sorry
@@jaelynnkim1801 k
Everyone pretends to be suicidal, so your body might've gone emo mode.
I had asthma when i was born , but as i got older it went away mostly , but sometimes when i run mucus bothers my air way
Good!
You must have grown out of it
Your lucky pal
WOW SAME
Yay congrats!
Me too
Same here, but asthma still sadly, cannot be permanently wiped away. Feel bad for children that have asthma :( They must be sad!
I can say from experience, exercising and colds are brutal for me as one with asthma. It sucks 😂 I’ve had two asthma attacks before I was 10, and let me tell you, that was an experience. But this video taught me more about asthma! I always thought it was just a lung issue! I also learned recently that there are different types of asthma, and I’m interested to know which one I have.
I am from India and My girlfriend has asthma and it is really painful for me to see her in this condition. I hope future would resolve this problem but for now you all have to stay strong.
