Hello, I'm Dr Ranj. Welcome to my surgery. Are you well?

Yes!

Good. Someone's not feeling well. I wonder who my next patient is?

Who's come to visit me? Who will it be? Can you guess which friend it is?

Let's see.

It's... Jobi!

# Fast is fun just to watch me run

# Go go!

# And see me whizzing by

# When I jump I stretch right up

# Go go!

# And try to touch the sky

# There's no fun in standing still

# Running's what I need

# Don't say no or whoa or slow

# I just love to speed!

# Don't say no or whoa or slow

# Cos I just love to speed! #

-Hello, Jobi.

-Hello...Doctor.

-JOBI PANTS

-Pardon?

-Sorry, Dr Ranj.

-I've been playing football.

-Hmmm, what's it this time?

-More cuts and bruises?

-Mm-mm.

Can you tell me what's wrong?

JOBI PANTS

Oh dear, you sound a bit wheezy.

-I'm going listen to your lungs.

-My lungs?

-Yes, your lungs.

Let me show you what I mean.

Take your time, Jobi. There's no rush.

Look. Your lungs are inside you.

One here and one here.

We use our lungs to breathe. Jobi, put your hand on your chest.

Take a big breath in and out.

WHEEZE

Can you feel your chest moving up and down?

-Mmm. Is that my lungs?

-Yes.

Filling up with air and letting it out.

Yours aren't working as well as they should.

-I'll listen with my stethoscope.

-Stefastope?

-Yes, this.

-Stethoscope. It's a big word, isn't it?

-Yeah.

-Let's just call it Stan instead.

-Stan, that's easier.

I'll it to listen to your chest.

-It's cold!

-Now take a big breath in.

And out. And in.

And out. Good.

-Jobi, I think you might have asthma.

-What's ast..asth...ast...

What's asthma? Asthma is when your lungs aren't working properly.

So there are some things that you might not be able to do. Like...

-Blow up balloons.

-Wow! A tree! Thanks, Dr Ranj.

Your lungs are full of little tubes like the branches of a tree.

You've got hundreds and hundreds in each lung.

-That sounds a lot.

-It is. Look.

Air goes in and out of the tubes.

If they get sore, they close up and that gives you asthma.

I don't want to have asthma. I want to play football.

You will. Sport is good for children with asthma.

So what has made the tubes in my lungs sore?

-Many things. Smells from cars, people smoking.

-Yuck!

-Yes.

Smoking is bad for anyone. It's one of the worst things for asthma.

Sometimes, even flowers and pet fur can make us wheezy.

-I stroked my friend's cat.

-Was it very fluffy?

-Yes.

-It could be that, then.

-But I like cats.

-It's not all cats.

-Shorthaired cats are sometimes fine.

-Can you make my lungs better?

-Yes, we will.

-I'd like to know more about my lungs.

-Shall we ask Nurse Morag and the Healthy Helpers?

-Yes, please.

You stay there.

-Hello, Nurse Morag.

-Hello, Dr Ranj. Who's with you today?

Jobi. He wants to ask you something.

Nurse Morag, can you tell me, why do we have lungs?

An excellent question. I think it's one for my Healthy Helpers.

# Catch that ball, yeah, it's your go

# Give me questions, catch and throw

# Healthy Helpers will show and tell

-# How you can keep fit and well

-# Ask the nurse

# Catch that ball, yeah, it's your go

# Give me questions, catch and throw

# Healthy Helpers will show and tell

# How you can keep fit and well

# Ask me what you need to know

# Ask the nurse

# Catch that ball, yeah, it's your go

# Give me questions, catch and throw

# Healthy Helpers will show and tell

# How you can keep fit and well

# Ask me what you need to know

# Give me questions, catch and throw. #

I'm in Derby and my Healthy Helpers are...

Hello, my name's Zoe and I want to be a nurse when I grow up.

My name is Charlie and I love chocolate ice cream.

Hello, my name's Emma. When I grow up I want to be a nursery teacher.

Hello, my name's Mikail and I like playing tennis.

Jobi wants to know why we have lungs. And what a great question.

Because our lungs are amazing. Shall we find out why?

ALL: Yeah!

What are you guys doing now that we all do all of the time?

ALL: Breathing.

We all breathe in and out without even thinking about it.

Put your hands on your chest and see if you can feel yourself breathing.

Emma, what does it feel like when you're breathing?

It gets bigger.

That's right, because we're breathing in air

and we need air all of the time, both when we're awake and asleep.

What can you tell me about breathing?

We can breathe through our nose and mouth because

our lungs make us breathe, and it helps us stay alive.

Very good. Emma, what can you tell me about breathing?

-When we breathe there's lots of air coming out of our mouths.

-Well done.

Who can tell me what body part we use when we breathe?

-Lungs.

-That's right, we're using our lungs.

Who can tell me how many lungs we have? Yes?

-Two.

-Well done. We have two lungs.

They're right here and they take up most of the room in our chest.

Shall we play a game to find out more about how our lungs work?

ALL: Yeah!

OK, come on.

Right, Healthy Helpers. What we have here is four balls.

We'll play a game to see whose powerful lungs can blow the ball

all the way round from the start line there,

all the way round to the finish line.

Who thinks they can do it?

-It's easy for me.

-And why is it easy?

-Because you have to blow it.

So you have big lungs?

OK, everyone take a ball and don't go until I say so.

A straw for each of you. Stand up, everyone put your ball in.

Are you all ready? Three, two, one, go!

That's it, big breaths.

Well done, guys.

Yes, big breaths and blow out through the straw,

make that ball move.

Excellent, Charlie.

That's it, girls, big blows.

Keep going till I say so.

Make sure the straw doesn't go in the water or it won't work.

Wow, you all have powerful lungs.

OK, coming up to the finishing line.

Excellent! You've all gone round at least once.

Well done, guys, you all did so well.

Isn't it amazing that we've got such powerful lungs?

For that, you all get some treasure.

One for you, one for you, well done, there we go.

Now, it's amazing that our lungs can make us breathe

in and out without even thinking about it.

Poor Jobi, his lungs aren't working very well,

but Dr Ranj will get them back to being their powerful selves soon.

Bye-bye, Jobi. Get well soon!

Thank you, Healthy Helpers.

-Thanks, see you soon, Nurse Morag.

-Bye, Dr Ranj. Bye, Jobi.

Bye. I'm feeling better already.

We must come up with a personal asthma action plan for you.

-Action plan, I like it.

-We'll start you off with an inhaler.

To make it easier for you to use, I'll give you one of these, a spacer.

-Wow! How do I use it?

-It's simple, give the inhaler a shake.

Shaker, shaker, shake!

Pop it into the spacer.

Press the button. Pop the end in your mouth, and now breathe.

Good. Do that for 10 seconds. See? It's easy,

and it will make your asthma better. Just ask your mum or dad

when you feel you need to use it. Happy?

If I can play football again, yeah! Here we go!

# Fill your lungs with sweet, sweet air

-# You've just got to get your share

-Yeah!

-# Lovely air, sweet, sweet air

-Air!

# You've just got to get your share

# You're just trying just to breathe some air

I am!

# Where's it gone, it's not there

# It's like your breath's been taken clean away

Exactly!

-# Don't want to sound all wheezy

-Wheezy!

-# Want your breathing to be easy

-Easy!

# Want to go outside and run and jump and play

Yeah!

# Fill your lungs with sweet, sweet air

# You've just got to get your share

# To give you back your zing

# And help to make your asthma go away

Yeah!

-# You'll be breathing oh so easy

-# And feeling bright and breezy

-Breezy!

-# You know that in a mo, you'll be OK

-I hope so.

# Fill your lungs with sweet, sweet air

One more time!

# Fill your lungs with sweet, sweet air

# Of lovely air! #

I'm out of breath, Dr Ranj. Yippee! I'm on my way to Wembley!

You'll be playing football again before you know it.

With my personal asthma plan,

I'll soon be scoring the winning goal in the World Cup.

He shoots! He scores!

Will I always have asthma?

Some children grow out of it. If you don't, you can make it better.

-With my inhaler?

-Exactly. Here you go.

-Thanks, Dr Ranj. Bye!

-Bye!

I'm sure Jobi will be scoring goals again soon. Bye, everyone.

And remember, be happy, be healthy.

If you don't feel well, it's best to see your doctor. And get well soon!
