Adults and children with asthma show a higher breathing rate, basically they are breathing above the healthy norm of 8-12 breaths per minute. If we are over-breathing or hyperventilating the balance between oxygen and carbon dioxide in our body gets easily disturbed.
Low levels of carbon dioxide have an effect on smooth muscles which are wrapped around airways and blood vessels. As a result they start to spasm / tighten and the airflow is reduced which creates stress for the person. Wheezing sets in and chest tightness or shortness of breath occurs.
