their
asthma.

Yourself
Away
From

love
to
sit
by
the
fireplace
and
get
the
warmth,
but
this
might
turn
dangerous
for

and

and
the
filters

as

intervals.The
heaters
blow
the
dusts
and
debris
that
are
spread
across
the
room
which
might
affect
asthamatics
at
home.
4.
Exercise
Indoors:
Exercise
which
is
one
of
the
most

parts
of
the

to
take
their
