Cold makes my asthma worse
Dear Jayda
Autumn and winter makes my asthma worse. Do you know of an alternative remedy? Nadine, 38, Bridlington
Dear Nadine
Damp, cold air can trigger asthma attacks. Acupuncture, homeopathy and yoga are helpful, but use alongside your medications. The Buteyko Breathing Technique is said to ease symptoms. It teaches you how to breathe through the nose rather than the mouth, which dries out the airways. It’s good for stress, too. Contact www.buteykobreathing.org
