Health Tip: Exercising Despite Allergies and Asthma

September 27, 2013

Take any medication prescribed by your doctor before exercising.
People who are allergic to dust may prefer outdoor exercise.
People with seasonal allergies may want to exercise indoors during allergy season.
Avoid exercising near chemicals or irritants in the air, such as places with heavy automobile traffic.
