As September rolls through, parents of children with asthma should be gearing up for more than just the hustle and bustle of back-to-school shopping. Welcome to "Asthma Peak Week," where the air might feel crisper, but the hazards are on the rise! According to Larsen's research, this month is notorious for increased emergency room visits—think school supply lists paired with inhaler checklists!



As your little ones reunite with friends in the classroom, they'll face a double whammy: fresh asthma triggers and a parade of germs ready to hitch a ride home. From pesky ragweed pollen to the lurking mold that loves damp weather, September is a time for vigilance. So, dust off those asthma action plans, check the expiration dates of your inhalers, and keep a watchful eye on the weather and pollen counts. It's not just about getting through the first week of school; it's about ensuring a breath of fresh air for your child all season long. Prepare to tackle the fall challenges head-on—you've got this, and so does your little asthma warrior!
