Well, I myself have asthma and I can tell you some of the symptoms that you might experience if you have it.
- Shortness of breath, sometimes out of nowhere or when exercising and when you are scared or anxious
- Pain in your chest sometimes in random moments (this is a sign that you need your inhaler and need to see a school nurse, if in school)
- Chest congestion, when your chest has a slight bit of fluid or something when listened to by a stethoscope. It usually feels as if you have mucus in your chest
- Wheezing is when you have to use extra force to get carbon dioxide out of your lungs. I do this right before an asthma attack. It sounds as if you are blowing air out of a slightly blocked straw.
- Chest tightness is also something you should get used to if you have asthma. I have it 24/7. I can’t get a deep breath at all and if you have it, you should see how much lung capacity you have by getting a peak flow test.

If you have any of these symptoms, you should see your General Practioner about getting an inhaler and an asthma controlling medication.
