Question
Lately, my child has been frequently coughing. Initially, I thought it was a cold, but later found out they have pediatric asthma. They have been taking medication without any improvement. What treatment should I consider?
Answer
Asthma is a common chronic respiratory system disease in children, which cannot be cured completely but can be controlled through routine treatment. As the child grows older, the condition will ease. Good habits and a diet that is easy to digest can help reduce the frequency of attacks. It is advisable to avoid spicy foods and to drink plenty of water.
