🌩️ THUNDERSTORM ASTHMA SEASON IS APPROACHING 🌬️

Springtime in Australia brings more than just blossoms—it can bring dangerous asthma flare-ups.

What is Thunderstorm Asthma?
It’s a powerful mix of airborne pollen, humidity, and storm activity. When rain hits pollen grains, they break into tiny particles that can travel deep into your lungs—triggering severe asthma symptoms.

Who’s at risk?
🌼 People with springtime hay fever (allergic rhinitis)
😮‍💨 People with asthma—especially if not using a preventer
🏙️ Even those without a formal asthma diagnosis

Why it matters:
In 2016, a thunderstorm asthma event in Victoria sent thousands to emergency rooms. Ambulances and hospitals were overwhelmed.

Protect yourself:
✅ Start using your asthma preventer before pollen season
✅ Stay alert to weather and pollen forecasts
✅ Speak to your Nurse Practitioner about your asthma plan
📄 Learn more from the National Asthma Council’s Fact Sheet

Let’s help you breathe easier this spring—book your respiratory assessment today at the Healthy Breathing Clinic.

🌿 Managing Asthma Triggers from Gardening 🌿

If you have asthma, gardening or exposure to certain trees and plants might trigger your symptoms due to the pollen they release. This can lead to allergic inflammation or even asthma attacks. Common reactions include sneezing, itchy eyes, congestion, scratchy throats, or asthma flare-ups.

Here are some tips to help minimise your risk:

🌸Choose low pollen-producing grass that requires less frequent mowing. If possible, ask someone else to mow for you.
🌸Keep windows closed on high pollen days and set your air conditioning to recirculate.
🌸Regularly remove weeds, as their flowers and seeds can trigger asthma.
🌸Wear a mask while gardening.
🌸Garden in the morning when dew keeps pollen from dispersing.
🌸Change clothes and shower after gardening to avoid bringing allergens inside.
