How can I clear my lungs out?
May 23, 2010 in
Mesothelioma FAQs
I have been photographing the inside of an abandoned school building the past two days. I’ve been wearing a mask but I still inhaled alot of dust/dirt/possibly asbestos. I can feel it all in my lungs and I keep coughing. Is there anything I can do to make it better? I do not smoke. I have allergies, but Claritin isn’t helping with my lungs.
Can I do something to clear this all out or do I just wait it out? It feels best to be outside, which it’s cold and rainy today, if that makes any difference. Thanks in advance.

I know how you feel. A few weeks back I was going into an old school that has a lot of mold in it, and I had the same problems you did. Go to a doctor, stay out of the cold and rain (it’ll only make it worse). Maybe see if you can get a chest x-ray if things don’t get better (that’s what I did). Feel better Ben! :D

If you’re thinking of cleaning out your lungs, you’re making a very wise decision. A good sign that you are in need of this is if you have shallow breathing. If your breathing is shallow, this is a very good sign that your lungs need a good internal cleansing.
There are various ways you can clean your lungs and one of the simplest ones involve just getting outside in the fresh, clean air and breathing it in. This can allow your lungs to get some clean air to breath, and can aid in making them healthier.
Another great way to cleanse your lungs and help you breathe better is through exercise. This can aid you tremendously and when you exercise you also make your lungs stronger, as well as healthier. You can start out slow, and build up your endurance; such as starting with a short walk and working up to a long run or jog. This can really be a great way to have a natural body cleanse.
Also, if you smoke, quit. There is nothing that can destroy your lungs quicker than this. This is deadly for your lungs as well as the rest of you body, so like Nike says, "Just do it."
Cleaning out your lungs is the best way to help you breathe better, and thus have a more active life as well. We all wish to be as active as we can be and taking care of our lungs is a great way to do so. Healthy, clean lungs can keep your body strong and healthy, and who could ask for more than that?
There are various methods to use in cleaning out your lungs, and these methods discussed are just some. For more ifnormation to get a clean set of lungs for better health and to help you quit smoking click here to find out more!

My Mum used to be a Yoga teacher ~ so she would say Yoga breathing exercises ~ I never took up Yoga but Mum swears by it ~ I found this on YouTube ~
