No matter how long you have smoked, your health can improve. In fact, in just two to three months after stopping smoking, your lung function improves.
This means a lower risk of an asthma attack and less breathlessness and coughing – making daily tasks a little easier.
Continued smoking can worsen asthma symptoms…
Why?
Tobacco smoke can irritate your airways, making asthma worse and harder to control, and increasing the risk of an attack. Smoking can undo the effectiveness of your asthma medication. Smoking around children with asthma can trigger an asthma attack.
