Smoking and exercise induced Asthma?


Smoking and exercise induced Asthma?
I have exercise induced asthma. I am planning on quitting smoking so that I can be a gogo dancer (you need to be able to breathe). I was wondering, will that help my asthma? Obviously, quitting smoking will help my breathing SIGNIFICANTLY, but I was wondering if since my asthma is exercise induced, it will still be a problem?

Asthma is a reactive airway disease. It tends to worsen with certain stimuli. Cold, allergies, exercise, SMOKE.

Once you're tobacco free, your breathing passages will be much less irritated. There's a good chance that the asthma will be less bothersome. It may still bother you to some degree.
