If your family member has asthma, he needs your care and attention more than ever. To get better asthma control, let’s first understand: Some common asthma triggers in the home: Dust mites: are small insects that live in carpets ~ fabric furniture ~ curtains ~ mattresses ~ pillows ~ and bedding. They feed on dander and breed in warm, humid environments. Animal (pet) dander: A history of allergy to pets is common. Nearly 50% of children with asthma are allergic to pet dander ~ saliva and urine, not fur or feathers. These triggers are extremely tiny particles that remain suspended in the air even when the pet is no longer there. It is also possible for pets to bring pollen or mold that is on their fur indoors. Mold: A type of fungus that produces spores that float in the air, they can live in decaying plants and thrive in humid environments. Pollen: They disperse with the wind on hot and windy days. Pollen from trees and grasses is most common in the spring, summer and fall, respectively. Take special care of your asthmatic family member’s bedroom: 1. Replace the carpet with wood or tile flooring, as carpeted dust mites and mold are good breeding grounds. 2, often clean his stuffed animals, the right way when it will be frozen for 24 hours and then rinsed with cold water. 3, when cleaning the room with a wet mop or rag, try to avoid raising dust. 4, it is best not to use fabric curtains, you can use the blinds open up and down. 5, do not let pets into the bedroom. 6.Take out the things with strong smell out of the room. 7, the mattress, pillow cover with zipper dust mite cover. 8, do not use buckwheat pillow or mattress cores. 9.Wash all bedding with 60% hot water every week, and put it in the sun to dry after washing. On the use of humidifiers: 1, humid home environment is not good for lung health, and therefore generally do not recommend the use of humidifiers, but the indoor air in winter is very dry, so if you want to use a humidifier, please test the indoor temperature first. 2, if the humidity is below 30%, while the skin is very dry and electrostatic generation, you can consider using a humidifier, and pay attention to the continuous observation of humidity levels, once it reaches more than 50%, you need to turn off the humidifier. 3, pay attention to the cleanliness of the humidifier, because the stagnant water left in it is a good breeding ground for bacteria. Help your sick family members to better control their asthma: 1.Post a sticky note in a more prominent place in your home to remind him of the rules to use control medication on time. 2.Post a sticky note at the door as well to remind him to check if he has his quick relief inhaler medication with him when he leaves the house to ensure that it can be easily found when needed in an emergency. 3.Keep the inhaler at room temperature, not in the refrigerator. 4.Clean the inhaler and mask regularly. 5.Check the inhaler regularly to make sure the medication is adequate and within the expiration date. 6.Remind him to keep an asthma diary on time.
