Question

My child was diagnosed with asthma two years ago, and we’ve been very careful with their diet and lifestyle. Despite the symptoms having lessened, there’s no sign of recovery. How effective is the treatment for pediatric asthma?

Answer

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways, and due to the persistent inflammation, it requires a long time to treat. It is recommended to adopt the following lifestyle management measures: reasonable standard long-term treatment can achieve optimal control of asthma symptoms for the vast majority of patients, reduce recurrence, and even attacks. During the acute phase, anti-asthma medication is needed. Additionally, consuming nutritious foods, vitamins, and protein-rich foods is also important.
