Patient's question:
My child has recently been experiencing some cold-like symptoms, sometimes accompanied by coughing. When sleeping, their breathing can be very painful. Taking them to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor said it's a symptom of bronchial asthma in children. What should be noted when dealing with pediatric bronchial asthma?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it is recommended to prevent colds by adding antihistamines to oral antibiotics, and adding hormones for severe cases. Additionally, it is crucial to avoid allergens, which are all factors that exacerbate your condition. In winter, it is best to wear a mask to avoid cold air exposure. Also, check your home for potential allergens such as food, paint, recent renovations, or smoking-related items, and ensure these allergens are removed.
