" Reader Question: I have mild asthma and have heard that cold weather can aggravate symptoms. Does this mean I can&amp;#039;t exercise outdoors during the winter? On Call Response: Not necessarily. Some asthmatics are more irritated by cold air than others, so if your case is mild and you haven&amp;#039;t had problems in winters past, you should be OK. Just remember to carry your rescue inhaler with you, and head back inside if you start feeling wheezy or short of breath. However, if you&amp;#039;re fighting a cold or other respiratory infection (or feel one coming on), play it safe and stick to indoor workouts to avoid exacerbating your symptoms.
