A member asked:
Wildfire smoke in co is affecting my asthma. inhalers and my nebulizer are not working. what else can i try?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Reduce exposure: Exposure to smoke will make the airway reactive and make it difficult to control. Stay indoors as much as possible. You may need treatments more frequently.
