What are the symptoms of particle pollution exposure?
[Back to Top] If you have lung disease, you may not be able to breathe as deeply or as vigorously as normal, and you may experience respiratory symptoms such as coughing, chest discomfort, wheezing, shortness of breath, and unusual fatigue. If you experience these symptoms, you should reduce exposure and activity level, and follow the advice of your doctor. If you have asthma, you should already have an asthma action plan, but you may need to follow it more carefully when particle levels are high.
