What to do when asthma acts up?
Living with asthma can be quite the adventure. One moment you may feel like a champ conquering miles on your bike, and the next thing you know, you’re wheezing louder than an asthmatic walrus.
Whether it’s triggered by dust mites or pollen, asthma strikes when we least expect it. So what do we do? Clutch our inhalers tighter than our ex-lovers and pray for mercy? Nope. We take control of our health!
KNOW YOUR TRIGGERS
If only life were as simple as breathing in and out without a care in the world. Unfortunately, when you have asthma, your respiratory system is at war with the environment around it. That means being mindful of possible triggers, such as:
- Pet hair (curse those adorable furballs!)
- Pollution
- Exercise
- Strong smells
- Cigarette smoke
- Scented candles
- Perfumes
Make note of how your body reacts to certain stimuli so that you can avoid them whenever possible.
GRAB YOUR INHALER LIKE A PRO
Let’s face it: Inhalers are not exactly aesthetically pleasing accessories to carry around in public (unless if they come bedazzled). But even fashion faux-pas aside, knowing how to use an inhaler properly makes all the difference when symptoms hit.
Here’s what to do:
- Remove cap from the top and shake vigorously.
- Breathe out completely.
- Place mouthpiece between teeth and firm seal over lips.
