Best Answer
Breathing for astmatics can be difficult because the airways become more narrow, reducing the amount of air that can get into your lungs. During as asthma attack however, the airways are not only narrow, you breathe in more air than you breathe out, so air gets trapped inside your lungs making it harder to breathe..Hope this helps.
