I swin all summer in an outdoor pool with no problems, but 2 years in a row now when i started swimming indoors i start to wheeze and my asthma flares up which is normally well controlled. Research tells me the chlorine can't escape like an outdoor pool, and salt water pool no better, although I haven't tried that yet. Any suggestions like a special mask etc Robert Thanks I hate to give it up

  • I find that I have more trouble indoor as well. My pool has a giant fan that helps move the air, which also helps with my breathing, but ultimately, I just deal with the symptoms. Over the winter months, my tolerance for the poor air quality improves, but I always keep my inhaler pool side.
