QUIZ BY MONIQUE CURET
FREAK OUT OR
CHILL OUT?
Breathing problems can be scary. Here are
some clues that can help you figure out
what might be going on
Breathing usually comes naturally. But those
times when it doesn't-when you're gasping
for breath or coughing uncontrollably-can
be cause for panic. Juanita Mora, MD, a national volunteer medical spokeswoman for the American Lung
Association, helped us determine when to breathe easy
and when to proceed with caution.

Your grade schooler likes to run and play sports
as much as the next kid, but every time he
does-without fail-he complains that his chest
is tight and he coughs a lot. Is it exercise-induced
asthma or seasonal allergies?
Exercise-induced asthma.
"If it's happening regardless of the season, that would
be a sign it might be asthma-either full or exerciseinduced," Mora says. With exercise-induced asthma,
the small airways in the lungs narrow during strenuous
exercise. Symptoms begin during exercise and include
coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath and chest
tightness or pain.
Seasonal allergies can mimic exercise-induced
asthma, especially if kids are exercising in spring
or fall, such as running cross-country or playing
baseball. Kids who are suffering from seasonal
allergies, though, typically have a family history
of allergies and might have other symptoms
such as eczema, runny nose and post-nasal drip.
