Answer Choices:

Correct Answer:

"Eliminating allergens that irritate my lungs can help me avoid getting an asthma attack."

Rationale:

🔹 Asthma is a chronic inflammatory airway disease that is often triggered by allergens and environmental irritants such as pollen, dust mites, smoke, pet dander, and mold.

🔹 Identifying and eliminating or reducing exposure to known triggers is one of the most effective strategies for preventing asthma exacerbations.

🔹 Good asthma control allows patients to live normal, active lives, including participating in sports, as long as their condition is well managed with medications and avoidance strategies.

🔹 Statements about morning cough/shortness of breath being normal or believing asthma limits physical activity show misunderstanding of asthma management.
