Arab Weather - Dust is considered one of the main causes that lead to irritation of the respiratory system and exacerbation of allergies, as its effect begins from the nose, passing through the throat and bronchi, reaching the lungs, which may cause bronchial asthma and bronchial asthma.

Continuous exposure to dust contributes to reducing the efficiency of the respiratory system of people who are exposed to it frequently, as it triggers allergic symptoms such as allergic rhinitis and allergic bronchial asthma. In addition, suspended particles in the air can lead to chronic lung diseases if exposure to them continues for long periods without protection.

Dust damage prevention

Preventing the damage caused by dust requires following some guidelines to reduce its impact on health. These guidelines include:

  1. Avoid direct exposure to dust by staying indoors and closing windows, whether in homes or cars, to prevent dust from entering indoor spaces.
  2. Make sure to keep the house clean to get rid of dust, and use water when cleaning surfaces and furniture to reduce dust accumulation.

Children are considered to be the most affected group by dust compared to adults, as their respiratory system is more sensitive to air pollutants; therefore, it is preferable not to take them out of the house in dusty conditions. The elderly and patients with asthma and respiratory diseases are also greatly affected by dusty conditions, and it is recommended to avoid leaving the house in these conditions to reduce the aggravation of their respiratory problems.

Health tips for asthma and respiratory patients
