Asthma typically is an attack that causes your airways to become inflamed and irritated due to an allergen — particles like dust or pollen that cause an allergic reaction. The attack causes wheezing and tightness in the chest.
COPD makes it more difficult to move air in and out of your airways, which leads to what can appear to be asthma symptoms. But COPD can worsen over time and is mainly due to damage to the lungs most commonly caused by smoking cigarettes.
