Patient's question:
My child is over 9 years old this year. After catching a cold, coughing, and having a fever, he developed bronchial asthma. Whenever the season changes and the weather gets colder, he gets sick. I would like to ask if there is a relationship between pediatric bronchial asthma and the season?Doctor's answer:
Bronchial asthma in children is not uncommon in clinical practice. The clinical causes of this disease are very common, including environmental factors, genetic factors, airway hyperresponsiveness, and other hypersensitivity reactions. According to your statement, generally speaking, children may have seasonal variations, which may affect the surrounding environment and pollen, thereby exerting a certain impact on asthma.Advice: The treatment for bronchial asthma is still not very effective, mainly based on symptomatic treatment. Commonly used medications include bronchodilators, hormone drugs, and spasmolytics.
