The first is to slow the growth and development of children - General asthma has little effect on the growth and development of children, but if asthma attacks all year round or long-term use of adrenocortical hormone, it may have a greater impact on the growth and development of children due to hypoxia or inhibition of protein synthesis of cortical hormone.

Second, chest deformity and rib fracture are common in asthma, mainly in patients with asthma from childhood or long-term onset. Rib fracture mainly occurs in severe attack of cough or wheezing, because of the strong contraction of the transverse septum and airway obstruction, resulting in rib fracture.

Third: the emergence of locked in syndrome - the so-called "locked in syndrome" of asthma refers to the attack of asthma found in bed in the past decade. Although the severity of the disease is not necessarily severe, it lasts all day and has no obvious effect on all kinds of drugs, just like the respiratory tract is "closed" or "locked". The main causes of atresia syndrome are excessive use of isoproterenol or inappropriate use of propranolol due to rapid heartbeat.
