Masks

I have COPD. Does anyone use a face mask for DIY in the house/garden to catch dust etc? Has anyone been recommended a brand? Does it help keeping lungs clear etc?

Cheers

You could research Vogmasks I know some people with asthma recommend them they filter out pollen etc. If you react to cleaning products and dust it would be worth asking your Nurse or GP if a mask would help.
