Asthma is a treatable health condition. Although there is no cure, with good management individuals with asthma can lead normal, active lives.
The key to living well with asthma is keeping it under control. This means learning about what causes symptoms, how to avoid triggers and how to use medications.
It is important to see your doctor for regular check-ups so that he/she can work with you to monitor and control your asthma. Together with your doctor, you can complete your personal
written asthma action plan. This plan will help you monitor and manage your asthma. Individuals who follow their plans have better controlled asthma, fewer asthma attacks and fewer days off work or school because of their asthma.
