5. Plan Ahead When Exercising
Many people who have asthma suffer from increased respiratory symptoms or asthma attacks while exercising. It is important that you engage in an exercise program, despite your asthma. Consider engaging in exercises that are less likely to precipitate an asthma attack. Yoga and swimming are excellent options. Ask your health care provider for exercise recommendations.
It may be helpful for you to use a bronchodilator prior to engaging in vigorous activities. Exercise indoors on days which are very hot or cold and avoid exercising outdoors when air pollution or pollen levels are elevated.
