Your health and the health of your family are important. There are things you can do to minimize the impacts of smoke on you and your family.\nSmoke is made up primarily of small particles, gases, and water vapor. These particles can be inhaled deeply into the lungs, damaging lung tissue and causing respiratory and cardiovascular problems.\nRegardless of the source, smoke is a form of air pollution that can pose a health risk. Symptoms of short-term smoke exposure can include:\nWatery or dry eyes\nPersistent cough, phlegm, wheeze, scratchy throat, or irritated sinuses\nHeadaches\nShortness of breath, asthma attack, or lung irritation\nIrregular heartbeat, chest pain, or fatigue\nTo learn more about air quality index (AQI) and how to check it, visit the Smoke and Air Quality page.\nwildfire smoke health impacts central oregon\nChecking air quality index (AQI) on the Oregon smoke map is important to stay healthy during fire season.\nSign up to receive smoke & health related emails this fire season.\nSign Up\nWhat can people do to protect themselves and reduce their exposure to smoke?\nMany factors influence a person\u2019s sensitivity to smoke, including severity and duration of smoke exposure and a person\u2019s health. Smoke may worsen symptoms for people who have pre-existing health conditions and those who are particularly sensitive to air pollution. Sensitive groups include:\nPersons with asthma or other chronic respiratory diseases, such as COPD\nPersons with cardiovascular disease\nPersons 65 years of age or older\nInfants and children\nPregnant women\nSmokers, especially those who have smoked for several years\n \nFor specific guidance for each of these sensitive groups, visit the Protect Your Health page.\nIf you feel that smoke may impact you, use the following guidelines:\nLimit your exposure to smoke.\nReduce time spent outdoors when smoke is present. This can usually provide some protection, especially in a tightly closed, air-conditioned house. Set your A\/C or heating unit to recycle or recirculate when at home or in your car, to limit your exposure.\nReduce the time you engage in vigorous outdoor activity. This can be an important, effective way to lower the amount of smoke you are breathing in. It can minimize health risks during a smoke event.\nStay hydrated. Drink plenty of water.\nReduce other sources of indoor smoke and dust. These can be burning cigarettes, candles, gas or propane ranges, wood burning stoves and furnaces, and vacuuming.\nIf you have heart or lung disease or respiratory illnesses such as asthma, follow your health care provider\u2019s advice about prevention and treatment of symptoms.\nMore vulnerable or smoke sensitive persons may consider using an indoor high-efficiency air filter (HEPA) or electrostatic precipitator for your home or to help create one or more rooms with cleaner air to breathe.\nBefore you go to bed at night, close doors and windows to prevent outside smoke from getting inside and keep indoor air clean.\nIf you feel impacted by smoke, avoid outdoor physical exertion and remain indoors. Contact your medical provider if you experience serious health problems caused by smoke.
