cool air aggravates Comments By: Anon on 2004-09-08

In my experience it can be an extreme air temperature change that triggers my asthma. It seems that cool or cold air aggravates the situation of an asthma attack.

I have been doing this for years Comments By: Cris Q on 2005-06-06

if I laugh too much ... certain foods ... humidity ... allergies ... it all sets it off .. but tried and true for me is the freezer.

I hate the cold Comments By: jessica on 2006-10-04

my asthma is so bad that just going out in to the cold air can set off a severe attack. my trik is to cover my mouth with a scarf when i am goin out in the cold.

Haven't tried, but would probably work for me Comments By: Reahb on 2007-04-12

My lovely asthma is triggered by heat+humidity. I can tell when the humidity goes up better than most barometers. The key for me is cold air, usually a fan blowing directly in my face or getting in the car and pumping up the A/C to cool the smaller area quickly.
