Monsoon<\/b> rain brings a great respite after the sultry summers. However, this season worsens the condition of patients with <\/span>asthma<\/b>. The change in weather conditions can trigger <\/span>allergies,<\/span> leading to a chronic condition. Therefore, it becomes crucial for asthmatic patients to take special care during the rains.<\/span><\/p>\n

How does the monsoon trigger asthma?<\/h2>\n

\"Asthma_Activ<\/p>\n

Asthma<\/strong> is caused by allergens present in the atmosphere, such as pollen, dust mites, due to increased humidity, pet dander, dampness-induced fungus, and viral infections.\u00a0There is less sunlight during <\/span>monsoons<\/span> as the sky is covered in grey clouds. This leads to less exposure to vitamin D, making you susceptible to catching the flu or cold and aggravating your <\/span>asthma<\/span> attacks. The airway passages of people experiencing <\/span>asthma<\/span> can get constricted, making it difficult for them to breathe normally. This results in wheezing, coughing, tightness in the chest, and shortness of breath, which are common <\/span>asthma symptoms<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Preventive measures to control asthma<\/b>\u00a0<\/b><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Take a look at a few preventive measures you can undertake to control your <\/span>asthma<\/span> during <\/span>monsoon<\/span>:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Have warm drinks. Hot soups can help de-clog your nasal passages. <\/span>Herbal teas<\/b> with a drop of honey can also relieve you of nasal congestion.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Natural <\/span>home remedies<\/b> include concoctions (<\/span>kadha<\/span><\/i>) of ginger, black pepper, honey, garlic, turmeric, and warm water that can boost your immunity. They exhibit antibacterial, antiviral, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory properties.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • If you catch a whiff of cold, boil water with cumin seeds and inhale steam to dilate your bronchial passages.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Try to stay indoors. If you go for a run or jog during the summer season, replace it with a treadmill workout during the rainy season.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Practise <\/span>breathing exercises<\/b> during the monsoon. Diaphragmatic breathing maximizes the distribution of air in your lungs. Nasal breathing is better than mouth breathing since it adds warmth and humidity to the atmosphere, reducing <\/span>asthma symptoms<\/span>.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • If exercise triggers your <\/span>allergies<\/span>, you can try practicing <\/span>yoga<\/b>. Yoga poses like the bridge pose, cobra pose, and sitting half-spinal twist posture. These yoga asanas open up your chest and lungs. They also improve the circulation of blood and oxygen throughout the body.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Keep pets out of your bedroom to prevent the dander from spreading. Wear a mask while vacuuming and cleaning.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  • House dust mites are the most common allergen that occurs thrice during <\/span>monsoons<\/span>. The feces of these microscopic insects cause a histamine reaction, leading to the tightening of muscles surrounding the airways in your lungs and producing mucus. The cloudy weather leads to little sun-drying of bed sheets. Try washing your sheets often in hot water.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Keep your indoor plants outdoors to prevent the growth of microbes.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    \"Asthma<\/p>\n

    With the onset of the <\/span>monsoon<\/span> season, keep medications and equipment handy to keep <\/span>asthma<\/b> allergies<\/span> at bay. Keep your inhaler handy. Consult your doctor if your <\/span>asthma<\/span> worsens.<\/span><\/p>\n

    If you want to assess your asthma condition, then you can fill up our online <\/span>Asthma<\/b> Control Questionnaire<\/b>. This can help you avoid triggers and minimize <\/span>asthma symptoms<\/span>. <\/span><\/p>\n

    \n

    <\/h3>\n

    Key Takeaways<\/h3>\n
    \n
      \n
    • Asthma is triggered by various allergens in the environment, including pollen, dust mites, pet dander, mold from dampness, and viral infections.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    • To help manage asthma symptoms, try drinking warm fluids. Hot soups can help clear your nasal passages, while herbal teas with a drop of honey can alleviate nasal congestion.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Additionally, practise breathing exercises during the monsoon season, such as diaphragmatic breathing and nasal breathing, to further support your respiratory health.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
