3. Increased Asthma Attacks
An infection of walking pneumonia isn’t something that you want to suffer with if you know that you already having existing problems with your breathing and respiratory system: Because walking pneumonia and regular pneumonia are both known to have such a severely strong effect on the lungs, they can also trigger conditions that are already existing and also happen to have an effect on the respiratory systems and lungs.
You might find that you are having a much increased frequency of asthma attacks if you suffer from a walking pneumonia infection if you already have problems with asthma or your breathing. For this, you should take your regular asthma medication as you normally would – but you should also consult with your doctor to make sure that this does not clash with any kind of treatment that you are taking for walking pneumonia just in case. Walking pneumonia can still be treated.
