Asthma is an incurable disease that has affected more than 300 million people globally. If you are suffering from it, then consult a pulmonologist in Dubai. You can maintain a healthy lifestyle with Asthma by controlling it.   

Here are some of the tips that can control Asthma naturally: 

 Prevent your Trigger   

Your asthma gets worsen when triggers such as irritants and allergens enter the airways. Once you gain the proper knowledge about the triggers then, you can prevent them by using different techniques. You consult doctor shall help you with it. Common triggers include cold air, exercise and a strong odour. 

Air Quality Matters  

The air quality can affect your asthma condition. During Winters, you should cover your nose and mouth with a mask or scarf. Workouts should be carried out indoors. Furthermore, you should be extra careful during the allergy season. Staying indoors is the best during the allergy season. Keeping an eye on the pollution and the air quality index online will help you to prevent triggers.  

Say no to Smoking  

Smokers who have asthma should quit smoking as it will help them to prevent severe symptoms. Smoking also reduces the effectiveness of asthma medications. Exposure to second-hand smoke is also dangerous as it can worsen the symptoms.  

Exercise for life   

You may find exercising difficult with asthma, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t good for the body. Regular exercise for 30 minutes daily keeps the muscles stronger, maintain weight and boosts the immunity level. If you find it difficult to do exercises such as running or weight lifting, then try yoga, biking and hiking. In addition, swimming is a great sport for asthmatic individuals.  

 Cleanliness is vital

Furthermore, wash your pillow every week in hot water — at least 130 degrees F — to kill mites. Blankets and sheets should also be cleaned every week. Try to remove the carpet from the bedroom and use a dehumidifier or an air conditioner to balance the room temperature.  You can also use vacuum cleaners to get rid of dust mites. But, seek help from a non-asthmatic person to use it.    

Take Proper Medications   

You should follow the doctor’s prescriptions properly. Many people think that they can skip the asthma preventer medicines when they don’t have any symptoms. But, that will affect more as asthma is a long-term ailment. You should take care of asthma every day and not just the symptoms trigger.
