One of my family members is suffering from asthma. We are planning to get our house repainted right now. Can paints have any affect on the asthmatic patient? And any suggestions om kind of paint to be used?

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. Strong fumes and odors from paints can irritate your eyes, skin and airways. This is mostly because many paints contain volatile organic compounds (vocs). Vocs can trigger asthma symptoms. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
