Your entire family can suffer from seasonal allergies. Anything from firing up the grill to mowing the lawn can cause coughing, sneezing and wheezing. Even dramatic temperature fluctuations can trigger asthma. Think before you or anyone in your family jumps into a cold lake, pool, or river, ease yourself in. This gives your lungs a chance to adjust. In addition, chlorine odors can irritate the lungs causing respiratory issues as the smell is from bacteria breakdown.
