Making life easier: Help for asthma

The more you know about your own asthma or your child’s asthma, the better you can manage it. Self-help groups and patient training are a good way to find out more about how best to deal with asthma. Talking to others who have asthma can also help. Your day-to-day experience often opens up new approaches – such as how to keep an asthma diary or how to manage emergencies.
