How worried should you be about wildfire smoke exposure?    
How worried should you be about wildfire smoke exposure?
If you go outside, wear a tightfitting mask like an N95, and pay extra attention to your body for the next hour or so that follows, said Dr. Emily Pennington, a pulmonologist at the Cleveland Clinic — watch out for symptoms like intense coughing and chest tightness. If you are struggling to breathe or experiencing chest pain, seek medical attention. Continue to monitor your health over the next few days, and make sure you’re staying hydrated and getting enough sleep, which might help you feel better, advised Dr. Corlin. And take whatever precautions you can to minimize your level of exposure — namely, staying inside as much as possible.
