temperature

Changes of temperature can affect people with asthma.

What to do

  • Try to keep your home at an even temperature.
  • It may help to use a thermostatically-controlled heater in the bedroom at night to keep the temperature around 20 degrees C.
  • Wearing a thin, warm scarf loosely around your lower face can help warm the air you breathe.
  • If you know that certain weather affects your asthma you may need to increase your medicine during that time.
