Patient's question:
My child has been telling me recently that he often experiences difficulty breathing when he's at kindergarten. Sometimes he also feels dizzy. My child frequently coughs, and when he coughs, there is phlegm. There's a strange sound coming from his throat when he breathes. The doctor said it's bronchial asthma.Doctor's answer:
Asthma cannot be cured at present, but standardized treatment focused on suppressing inflammation can control the clinical symptoms of asthma. With fixed-dose escalation and maintenance treatment of fluticasone/salmeterol, the asthma control rate reaches nearly 80%. Although the cost of controlling asthma seems high from the perspective of patients and society, the consequences of incorrect asthma treatment would be even greater. The above suggestions are for the question "How is pediatric bronchial asthma treated?" and hope to be helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
