Dr. Sayar Mridha, Consultant Pulmonologist at Desun Hospital Siliguri, shares important guidance on managing asthma and chronic respiratory conditions during winter, when cold air, pollution, and infections can worsen breathing problems.
Winter increases the risk of flare-ups in asthma and COPD, making preventive care and early action essential. With the right precautions, symptoms can be effectively controlled and quality of life maintained.
Essential steps to protect your respiratory health this winter:
* Understand the triggers: Cold air, dust, smoke, and seasonal infections can aggravate asthma and COPD.
* Focus on prevention: Regular medication, proper inhaler use, and timely vaccinations help reduce winter-related complications.
* Watch for early signs: Persistent cough, breathlessness, wheezing, or chest tightness should not be ignored.
* Protect your lungs: Keep yourself warm, avoid exposure during high pollution hours, and maintain clean indoor air.
Asthma and COPD are manageable with early detection and consistent care. Don’t let winter affect your breathing—take preventive steps for better respiratory health.
