Asthma

Don't involve in a lot of like intense physical activity. So for example, I would walk instead of running so that you can still like do some cardio but not like do intense cardio work.

A helpful tip that I have for asthma is definitely to just calm down. I think the first few times I had an asthma attack I would start crying and my lungs would just close up even quicker or I start freaking out. Different things like that just will make your lungs close more and it obviously makes it harder to breathe. So definitely just try and stay calm and slowly take deep breaths, use your inhaler, things like that.

When you are getting shorter on breath, drink water. It clears your throat and try and take deep breaths. Slow your breathing down. If you have an asthma attack, you know how the ambulance driver comes in and says, right, start breathing slowly and you manage to do it. Well, you can actually do that yourself because if someone else tells you to do it and you do it, then you can do it yourself. You've just got to concentrate on breathing slowly. Drink plenty of water. Keep your lungs free, you know, just as clear as your throat, clear if you can, and elevate yourself.

The best tip I can give for those of you who struggle with asthma is to go on a jog. Learn your limits and then stop there. Get some rest, take a nap, about an hour, and then go start again. Try to beat that limit by one second. The more you do this, the better your respiratory abilities will be, and the less you'll need to rely on inhalers or limiting your ability to enjoy yourself. Learn to overcome and then enjoy life.

I used to have asthma and my recommendation is not to work outside by yourself because if you're doing some like intense workout that might um I mean you might have you might be having like a trouble or problem because you'll like suddenly can be out of breath or something so you will need someone to help you so my recommendation is not to work out by yourself outside if you are doing some intense workout

I had exercise-induced asthma when I was a kid, and the more that I got into high school sports and just legitimately had to practice pushing my body to its next, like, cardiovascular limits, my asthma got significantly better. So, um, that's not, like, medical advice. If you have asthma, I'm not saying, like, go out and push it and, like, be reckless with it, but what I am saying is that our bodies are adaptable, and so having good things on board, keeping a healthy weight, eating good food, like, supporting your body elsewhere, you might find that there are good changes in your asthma.

Have an inhaler. Make sure you've talked to your doctor and your doctor knows. Obviously, you'll have to get a diagnosis for asthma from your doctor, so once your doctor diagnoses you with that, you're able to get an inhaler. And then I would honestly recommend trying to get a prescription for two or three inhalers. I have a couple of different ones. I keep one in my backpack with me, so I always have it when I'm at school. I keep one in my kitchen, so that way right before I go exercise, I can remember, oh, just grab my inhaler really quick out of the drawer. And then a related tip to that is please make sure your inhalers are current, because inhalers can actually expire after a couple of years. And then it's not that the inhaler won't work per se, but it means that the medicine is not as effective. So if you're all of a sudden having a really bad asthma attack and your inhaler's out of date, then the medicine might not be as effective. So just make sure to keep an eye on it and get those renewed every couple of years.

Some helpful tips if you have asthma. Always carry an inhaler around with you, because you never know when you're gonna, you know, have an allergic reaction or have an asthma attack. But for me, a lot that triggers my asthma is animals, because I'm allergic to animals. So whenever I'm around animals, I'm always super careful to wash my hands if I pet them. And always be careful and not get too close. But also, you know, I love animals, so I'm gonna get as close as I can. But just always to wash my hands and make sure I don't touch my eyes and not itch too much anywhere.
