Asthma risk and prevented informations

Who Is at Risk for Asthma?
Asthma affects people of all ages, but it most often starts during childhood.
Young children who often wheeze and have respiratory infections as well as certain other risk factors are at highest risk of developing asthma that continues beyond 6 years of age.
The other risk factors include having allergies, eczema (an allergic skin condition), or parents who have asthma.

Among children, more boys have asthma than girls. But among adults, more women have the disease than men. It's not clear whether or how sex and sex hormones play a role in causing asthma.

Most, but not all, people who have asthma have allergies.

Some people develop asthma because of contact with certain chemical irritants or industrial dusts in the workplace. This type of asthma is called occupational asthma.

How Can Asthma Be Prevented?

Currently, asthma can't be prevented.
However, you can take steps to control the disease and prevent its symptoms.

• Learn about your asthma and how to control it.
• Follow your written asthma action plan. (For a sample plan, go to the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute's Asthma Action Plan.) 
• Use medicines as your doctor prescribes.
• Identify and try to avoid things that make your asthma worse (asthma triggers). However, one trigger you should not avoid is physical activity. Physical activity is an important part of a healthy lifestyle. Talk with your doctor about medicines that can help you stay active.
• Keep track of your asthma symptoms and level of control.
• Get regular checkups for your asthma.
