Wheezing is usually the result of one of the following health problems: 1  Asthma. 2  Allergic reactions to pollen, chemicals, pet dander, dust, foods, or insect stings. 3  Acute or chronic bronchitis and COPD, which can produce excess mucus in the respiratory tract and cause the lungs' passageways to become blocked.

But the characteristic whistling sound of wheezing is a primary symptom of the chronic respiratory disease asthma.
