Kids with Asthma Usually Have Significant Allergies Too

Mike Tringale, director of marketing and communications for the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, says, "Allergy sufferers need to pay more attention to managing the indoor air quality in their homes to lessen the nasal congestion, coughing, sneezing, and flu-like symptoms they often experience."
