What is the best position to stand / sit in when suffering an asthma attack?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Comfort...: During an acute asthma episode, whatever position allows you to breathe easier is the right one for you. Most patients are more comfortable sitting upright but it varies so do whatever is right for you!
