    While the potential triggering events for EIB are well recognized, the underlying pathogenesis is poorly understood. [4] It usually occurs after at least several minutes of vigorous, aerobic activity, which increases oxygen demand to the point where breathing through the nose ( nasal breathing ) must be supplemented by mouth breathing .
