Does anyone know if getting really red cheeks during exercise is a sign of asthma? My daughter, Hannah (3 1/2 non BPI) always get such red cheeks when she runs around even if it isn't warm. I understand that activity bring forth body heat, but sometimes I really don't think that she should be getting so red in the face. She does have a couple of other signs leading towards asthma. Any knowledge about this floating around =) ?
Thanks!
Krista

you know francine, your mum might just have been right on the nail with the honey, it contains powerful antibacterial agents, and New Zealand Manuka (or tea tree) honey is the most powerful of all. You can get it in the states http://www.manukahoneyusa.com/ I use it all the time for throat infections and skin infections both on the family and the dogs, cats and horses, it definitely works!

jenny - wow I would think that tea tree honey WOULD be really strong and good for things like this - even in the U.S. tea tree is in a LOT of things for those reasons.... I'm going to get some of that honey! I wonder what it tastes like... like tea tree oil?? (yuck - LOL)
