Asthma: Asthma is usually triggered by upper respiratory infections and when allergies are aggravated. Achieving ultimate control of your asthma is by controlling its triggers. An allergist can help you reach that goal, consult one in your neighborhood, look for one at acaai.Org or aaaai.Org.

Hand hygiene : A viral infection (especially the rhinovirus associate with colds) often triggers asthma attack. A practical way to reduce exposure to the virus is by cleansing your hands with soap or a gel after touching door knobs, faucets, phone etc which other people have come into contact with. This must be done each and every time.
