No.

-Christy
Nope, its not needed. Only capitalize it if its the first word in a sentence

-Kenton
Yes, the word Asthma is a proper noun seeing as it is the name of a specific lung condition. You should capitalize it.

-zinnprojectbig
No. Asthma is NOT a proper noun. One does not capitalize cancer, the flu, or a cold every time (or any time, for that matter, unless as one said, the word comes at the beginning of a sentence).
