My daughter is 3years and lately the doctor diagonised asthma after a cough. would this be longlasting?



the child had never been disgonised to be having it before and neither has been shown in either parents family.

Asthma is a life-long disease that is managed through environmental changes, allergy management, and medications. While it was once believed that children with asthma had to have parents with asthma, research now has found that because of significant deteriorations in our environment, more and more children are becoming diagnosed with asthma. Common symptoms include wheezing, cough, tightness in the chest, and shortness of breath.

One of the best types of management you can teach your child is relaxation. We know that asthma increases anxiety and anxiety increases asthma, thus to promote healthy practices for your child in at this stage includes relaxation and normalizing medications. Asthma medications are very effective and there are many types of options. If you have significant concerns or would like a second opinion you can seek out assistance from an Allergist/Immunologist and/or a Pulmonologist. It is a highly manageable disease, but also very very serious.

Best wishes, I've lived with asthma for 28 years.

My brain
Could be. I have 2 kids with asthma and both were diagnosed at a young age. It is difficult to deal with. If you need any advice on meds, doctors, etc. email me.
Me and My daughter have been with Child hood Asthma. I out grew mine. She is still having problems. She was diagnosed with mild to moderate. She doesn't have many attacks as she did so I'm hoping she will out grow hers. In fact her Pulmonologist released her from his care. He said she has any more BAD outbreaks schedule appt with him.
is it chronic asthma?
is it exercise-induced asthma?
