What are the challenges of having asthma?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Challenges: Knowing when you are having symptoms (cough, wheezing, difficulty breathing) can be the biggest challenge. Also avoiding triggers (allergens, irritants, infections, exercise, reflux). Using medications when instructed and correctly and treating at the first sign of symptoms is important. Here's a good site to learn more: http://www.aaaai.org
