Lexington offers families many fun and magical events to celebrate the holidays 🎄, and few can outshine the Winter Village at Gatton Park. This free event is open nightly from 5p to 10p and dazzles guests with an 80 ft. tall digital Christmas tree, a glowing winter playground, interactive surprises, warm cocoa and delicious holiday treats 🍭.
While outdoor events with cold air ❄️ and warm campfires add to the Christmas spirit, they pose a risk for those with asthma. If you or a family member experiences asthma symptoms in cold weather, here are some precautions to take before heading outside to celebrate the season:
1) Loosely wrap a scarf around your nose and mouth to warm the air as you breathe.
2) Take your medications as directed and always have a quick-relief inhaler available.
3) Check with your doctor about using a quick-relief inhaler 20 to 30 minutes before going out.
Asthma doesn’t have to limit enjoyment of the holiday season 🎁. For help managing asthma call Bluegrass Allergy Care at 888-651-0055 or visit bluegrassallergycare.com.
