Exercise Induced Asthma: Especially a Problem for Young PeopleThe Air Passage is Irritable in Asthma A person suffering from asthma finds that their air passages are irritable. This would cause what would not be harmful for normal people to trigger an attack of asthma in the asthmatic. One can get exercise induced asthma from different kinds of exercises, but to prevent such attacks the asthmatic should consume the same amount of oxygen in each exercise so that there is less chance of wheezing or chest tightness. The case of running outdoors is considerably worse than swimming because swimming is one of the best types of exercise for asthmatics because there is less of chest tightness involved. Also, running indoors on a treadmill or cycling on an indoor exercise bike are less extreme cases and fit somewhere between running and swimming. 
Exercise induced asthma may also affect a person who swims in a swimming pool that is rich in chlorine fumes, and so one should avoid swimming in chlorinated pools if one is an asthmatic. Another factor that needs to be taken into account when preventing exercise induced asthma is to time the exercise. One may be surprised to know that an exercise induced asthma attack can occur within six minutes of exercising; so exercise for fewer than six minutes. However, after a few hours of being struck with an exercise induced asthma attack, repetition of the same amount of exercise would not necessarily produce the same asthmatic symptoms, or there may not be any attacks at all. This means that one can run through the exercise induced asthma by warming up with short spurts of exercise or by continuous exercising which does not cause a severe attack. |
