If you’re concerned your child might have asthma, make a note of the symptoms and any “triggers” that are causing the symptoms and share with your child’s pediatrician. Controller medicine is taken every day, even when a child feels well. These include quick relief medicines that help relieve asthma symptoms within minutes and controller medicines that manage asthma by preventing flare-ups. Bolton says, “Our goal is that children with asthma can run and play and do the things any other child can do.” There are multiple treatment measures that can be used in the management of asthma. There’s no cure for asthma, but it can be managed to prevent flare-ups.
She says the common symptoms of asthma include coughing, especially at night time, as well as chest pain or chest tightness, and difficulty breathing or a wheezing, whistling sound when breathing. Molly Bolton is the Asthma Program Nurse Practitioner at Children’s of Alabama. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, one in 13 people have asthma. This happens because airways in the lungs get swollen, smaller and filled with mucus. It’s a disease that makes it hard to breathe.
