1.Beyond Medication
If you have asthma, you know how important it is to take your medication as prescribed by your doctor. That often means using a long-term control drug every day and keeping a quick-relief inhaler handy. But managing asthma isn’t only about medication. You can do several other things to help you breathe as freely and easily as possible.
2.Grab an Espresso
While coughing, wheezing, and trouble breathing call for your rescue inhaler, you might consider a caffeinated drink if your symptoms are mild. Caffeine is a weak bronchodilator, which means it opens your airways a bit. More research is needed, but some studies suggest that it may help your lungs work better for up to 4 hours.
