WHAT ARE ASTHMA AND ALLERGY TRIGGERS?

If you or someone you know have allergic symptoms or asthma, you are sensitive to "triggers," including particles carried in the air. These "triggers" can set off a reaction in your lungs and other parts of your body. Triggers can be found indoors or outdoors. They can be simple things like:

• Cold air.
• Tobacco smoke and wood smoke.
• Perfume, paint, hair spray, or any strong odors or fumes.
• Allergens (particles that cause allergies) such as dust mites, pollen, molds, pollution, and animal dander (which are tiny scales or particles that fall off hair, feathers or skin) from any pets.
• Common cold, influenza, and other respiratory illnesses.
