🌧️ High humidity causes airway narrowing and makes breathing more difficult.
🍄 Mould and fungal spores grow rapidly in damp areas and are powerful asthma triggers.
🛏️ Dust mites multiply in humid weather.
🤧 Viral infections (cold and flu) are more common and can trigger asthma exacerbations.
⛈️ Thunderstorm asthma can occur when storms break pollen into tiny particles that reach deep into the lungs.
Continue your controller inhaler regularly—don't stop when you feel better.
Keep indoor humidity below 50% if possible and remove dampness or mould promptly.
Avoid exposure to dust, smoke, and strong fragrances.
Keep windows closed during thunderstorms if pollen allergy is a trigger.
Seek medical advice if you need your reliever inhaler more often than usual
