Insufficient oxygen is able to reach the lungs due to bronchospasm. So you become short of breath & your body gasps for air. You feel anxious, your heart races & you turn pale, possibley begin showing signs of cyanosis(blue tinged lips, fingers, toes...) & in worst case scenarios you lose conciousness possibly even leading to death. However dont be alarmed as asthma is common & rarely leads to such seriousness but if you think you have it you must see a doctor as there are medications which help

During Asthma attack their is strong constriction of Trachea causing insufficient passage to lung causing breathlessness.

You can get the air in, but you can't get it out----which causes wheezing.

the 'alveoli' in the lung becomes constricted, which makes breathing very difficult ~ as a consequence difficulty in breathing is apparent!

The muscles around your airways tighten even more than usual, going into what is known as bronchospasm. The inner lining of the airways swell and become irritated. At the same time, your airways produce large amounts of mucus that make breathing even more difficult.
The airway tightening, swelling, and increase in mucus all combine to cause a number of symptoms. The symptoms of an asthma attack include:
-Severe wheezing, when breathing both in and out
-Coughing that won't seem to quit
-Severe chest tightness, pain, or pressure
-Feeling anxious or panicky
-Fast breathing or the feeling that you can't catch your breath
-Retractions, or tightening, of the muscles in between your ribs and in your chest
-Blue color, called cyanosis, in the lips and fingernails
-Pale, sweaty face
