Smoke Exposure Tips from Daryl Banta, MD, Medical Director of Pulmonology and Critical Care

Inhalation of smoke from wildfires is dangerous and should be avoided. Smoke and poor air quality are particularly detrimental to those with asthma, COPD and heart conditions. Those living in Southern California are familiar with how bad air quality used to be in Los Angeles. These poor air quality conditions are worsened with the burning of wood and other organic matter. A toxic and complex mixture of liquid droplets, fine particles and gases is produced by fires. The polluted air and smoke can enter our respiratory system and cause symptoms. As brush fires and smoke in the air have increased, more people are visiting their primary physicians, pulmonologists, urgent care facilities and emergency rooms. They report scratchy throat, watery eyes, runny nose, difficulty breathing, cough and chest discomfort.

Here is some advice related to smoke exposure from local fires:

  • Wear a mask. Wearing masks helps protect from smoke inhalation. If outdoor activities are essential during particularly smoky or poor air conditions, an N95 mask with proper fitting is recommended.
  • Get early medical attention. If you experience severe cough, shortness of breath, fatigue, chest pain, dizziness or confusion after smoke exposure, seek immediate medical attention. Symptoms may worsen over time depending on the amount of exposure. Most physicians are available in their offices or via telemedicine. If your symptoms are severe enough, do not hesitate to go to your local urgent care or emergency room.
  • Stay indoors. Close your windows and doors, and turn on your air conditioner (if you have one). Make sure you keep the fresh air intake closed and change your air filter if it has not been changed recently. You don’t want to let any outside smoke enter your home. When you are indoors, try not to increase the amount of smoke inside the house. Don’t use any wood-burning fireplaces, try not to use any candles, and do not smoke cigarettes indoors.
  • Measure air quality. Most smart phones have weather apps that can determine the Air Quality Index (AQI). You can also visit this website to determine AQI. The AQI measures the level of air pollution. It is scored from 0 to 500. The higher the number, the worse the air quality. An AQI of 101 or greater is unhealthy for sensitive groups. Even if you don’t know the AQI, use common sense. If you see smoke, or it smells smoky, it is not a good time to go outdoors.
