👉 Asthma fluid, also known as sputum, is a mixture of mucus and cellular debris produced by the airways in individuals with asthma. When asthma symptoms flare, the airways become inflamed and narrowed, leading to increased mucus production. This excess mucus, combined with inflammatory cells and other substances, forms the fluid that is coughed up or expelled during an asthma attack. Asthma fluid can vary in consistency, from thick and yellow to clear and watery, depending on the severity of the inflammation and the individual's condition. It serves as a diagnostic tool for assessing asthma severity and monitoring treatment effectiveness.
