Beckham admits asthma problem [align=center][color=#000000][/color][/align][align=left][color=#000000][size=4]Renowned for his fitness, David Beckham has revealed that has been troubled with asthma for several years.[/size][/color][/align]

[size=4]The 34-year-old Los Angeles Galaxy midfielder, who will begin a second loan spell with AC Milan in January, was seen using an inhaler after the MLS Cup final.[/size]

[size=4]"It's out there now," he said Thursday on the eve of the World Cup draw in Cape Town. "Sometimes I have good days and bad days. I've never hidden it but it's something I've had for a good few years now.[/size]
[size=4][/size]
[size=4]"I hope it turns into a positive because I've been able to play for many years with the condition. I know there are many other players who have overcome it such as (Manchester United midfielder) Paul Scholes."[/size]

[size=4]Beckham also dismissed a report that he regularly smoked cigars, but admitted he occasionally had a taste of one whenever he celebrates a major triumph.[/size]

[size=4]"I've always prided myself on the way I look after myself," he said. "On special occasions, like winning the European Cup, I might have had a puff. But I don't sneak into the garden. I think my boys would kill me if I did."[/size]

[size=4]With the Major League Soccer season over and his loan spell not due to start for a month, Beckham is trying to regain fitness after an ankle injury. He needed painkilling injections to get him through the MLS Cup final in Seattle.[/size]
[size=4][/size]
[size=4]"In the last few days it has felt a bit better," Beckham said. "Bone bruising takes time to go away and obviously the injections I had during the game in Seattle didn't help. But it should be fine by the time I get to Milan. There's not much you can do with bone bruising apart from resting it and icing it. I just need a couple of weeks off, which I'm having."[/size]
