Can degrading old foam cause allergy like asthma?


Posted by Barbara

Hi,

 I have an old favourite armchair that is in need of complete reupholstry.  Recently I've been suffering asthma like attacks and realized they are worse if I sit in the armchair for the evening.

 Could the collapsing foam be causing an allergic reaction?  I do have sensitivity to house dust mite, mould, cats etc.  Is it time to dump the chair?

 Regards

Barbara
