Can asthma be transmitted to partners

Asthma cannot be transmitted to partners. Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways, mainly related to genetics, allergen stimulation, environmental factors, etc. It is not contagious. The pathogenesis of asthma involves airway hyperresponsiveness and chronic inflammation, which are pathological changes caused by an individual's own immune abnormalities or long-term exposure to allergens. Common triggering factors include pollen, dust mites, cold air, smoke, etc. Daily contact between partners does not spread inflammation or airway abnormalities. Even if both parties live together for a long time, as long as they have not been exposed to the same allergens, the healthy party will not get sick due to close contact. In rare cases, partners may experience asthma symptoms due to joint exposure to the same environmental stimuli, such as severe fungal contamination or exposure to secondhand smoke in their living environment. This phenomenon is an independent disease induced by the environment, not caused by interpersonal transmission. If a partner experiences symptoms similar to wheezing, it is necessary to identify allergens in the shared living environment rather than worrying about transmission. Asthma patients and their partners do not need to be isolated, but it is recommended to improve the living environment together, regularly clean to reduce dust mites, and avoid using irritating fragrance products. Patients should use medication in a standardized manner to control symptoms, and their partners can learn first aid measures to cope with acute attacks. Both parties should maintain moderate exercise to enhance physical fitness, and a balanced diet supplemented with nutrients such as vitamin D can help reduce airway sensitivity.
