Hello! Thanks for using healthcaremagic.com I read carefully your question and understand your concern. I think this is a case of Asthma. Occasionally people with asthma develop symptoms during exercise. However, this is usually a sign that your asthma could be better controlled. Outdoor exercise with cold and low humidity (dry air) tends to worsen symptoms as both factors are thought to increase heat loss from the airways. In general, exercises or sports that most likely trigger episodes of bronchial spasm are those that require intense physical activity in moderate periods of time and especially in open environments (such as basketball, tennis, racquetball, mid-course, cycling, etc). Paused and continuous exercises, with increasing physical effort (aerobic), are less likely to cause problems (swimming, walking, jogging, low impact aerobics, long distance running, etc.). As you have pointed out, you should make an appointment with an pulmonologist. To properly diagnose this problem, the specialist is based on an adequate clinical history, which details the type of symptoms and the variables of the exercise. In addition to special respiratory tests performed with devices to measure airflow and lung capacity (Spirometry), both in resting conditions (without symptoms) as well as after undergoing various types and times of exercise. I recommend the follow instructions: You should make sure that people with whom you practice exercise know that you suffer from exercise-induced asthma. Increase fitness levels gradually. You always have your inhaler with you when you exercise. You use your inhaler with quick relief medications immediately before warming up. If you have symptoms while you are exercising, stop your activities, apply your inhaler with fast-relief medications, and wait until you feel better before you start again Kind regards, Dr. Oscar Martinez
