Can heavy dust affect breathing and needs pro help?« Back to Previous Page

Heavy dust can indeed affect breathing and cause discomfort. In the UAE especially during sandstorms like the one you've experienced, it's important to address this promptly. The fine particles from dust storms can contain pollutants that irritate your respiratory system leading to coughing, wheezing, or even difficulty in breathing.

For your situation, it’s advisable to take immediate action by cleaning the affected areas yourself before considering professional help. Start with airing out your living room; open windows if possible and allow fresh air to circulate for a while. This can reduce some of the dust concentration.

Use a vacuum cleaner equipped with HEPA filters, which are especially effective in capturing small particles. Pay extra attention to corners, under furniture, and other hard-to-reach spots where dust tends to accumulate. Microfiber cloths or damp cloths can also be used to wipe down surfaces without spreading dust around too much.

However, if you notice persistent symptoms like a cough that doesn’t go away, shortness of breath, or any signs of respiratory distress, it would be wise to seek professional assistance. In the UAE, regulations do not specifically require cleaning services for such issues but it's always better to err on the side of caution when it comes to your health.
