How should children with bronchial asthma be treated?

Patient's question:

The child is eight years old and suffers from bronchitis and asthma. He has been coughing for over three months. Sometimes, he vomits after eating lunch. He usually coughs and wheezes, which makes me feel very heartbroken. Recently, I took him to see a doctor, who said that some inflammation in his bronchi has caused asthma. I don't know what to do.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, children with asthma are often related to allergic rhinitis. In addition to frequent nighttime asthma, they may also experience dry cough and eczema, which can be exacerbated by consuming milk or eggs. Therefore, prevention is very important. I suggest taking your child to your local allergy center to check for allergens first. Knowing the allergens will be helpful for prevention, desensitization treatment, or immunotherapy.
