David Beckham is Suffering From Asthma

David Beckham a veteran of football has asthma.

This was disclosed when he got asthmatic attack during MLS cup final and he used inhaler to get the rhythm back in momentum.

A spokesman for Becks said: “David’s always had a mild form of asthma.
“It’s not severe but he does use an inhaler on occasions.”

Dr Mike Thomas, of Asthma UK, said: “Seeing David Beckham using an inhaler is proof asthma needn’t stop you competing at the highest level.”

He added, “Asthma is particularly common among elite sportspeople like Paul Scholes and Paula Radcliffe, who both suffer with the condition, proof that asthma needn’t stop you competing at the highest level.”

Beckham’s agent Simon Oliveira said, “David has suffered with this since he was a young boy, but it has obviously had no effect on his performance. He has never sought to make it public but if it does inspire any sufferer to think they can achieve great things like many other sportsmen have done then so much the better.”

The most marvelous is that the great player has had this problem since childhood but he managed to keep it covered for so long.
