Thank you so much for making this video 💕💕 these are all great points to improve the life quality of people with asthma. I've had it since I was 7 and I think air pollution had a lot to do with it (I grew up in Mexico City)

Thanks a lot for always keeping us updated as to how to manage our asthma.but I have a question please, I have been using turbuhaler for 6 months now.but now I don't feel the effect on me again.so what do I do.should I stop using it or I should continue

[@solveigst-juste6276]

I’m not a doc, i’m a patient. You shouldn’t stop using a med before talking to your doctor. Maybe they won’t stop and switch maybe they will add a new one on top of what you already have or put you on a higher dose. So, go see your doctor

[@adafridi]

What's your view on immunotherapy?

[@solveigst-juste6276]

Even if you don’t struggle with inhaler technique, it is recommended to use a spacer because it gets the medication more to your lungs and less in your mouth. Oftentimes adults stop using them but I think that’s stupid

[@yes-tz5ki]

Sir is allery from inhaler

[@cherylforde8405]

Can one develop asthma later in life?

[@DrStefanCristianStanel]
