As asthma sufferers know, allergies can be one of the biggest triggers of asthma attacks. While pollen allergies are not much of a concern during the winter, poorer indoor air quality during winter months can spell danger for asthmatics. Closed doors and windows, sealed tightly against the cold, prevent air circulation, leading to higher concentrations of indoor allergens. On top of that, people spend more time indoors during the winter, and therefore more time surrounded by – and breathing in – indoor allergens. (Air quality is generally worse indoors than out in any season, but especially during winter.)
