Asthma is the most common chronic disease for athletes who attend the Olympic Games, a study said.
About 8% of Olympic athletes have asthma or narrowing of their airways - one of the symptoms of asthma.
The study analyzed the information of athletes who participated in the 5 Summer and Winter Olympics from 2002 - 2010, from there to find athletes using asthma medicines belonging to beta-2 agonists.
This is a common chronic disease in athletes who practice sports that need great endurance.
