Question

What are the precautions for pediatric asthma?

Answer

Pediatric bronchial asthma may require certain medication treatments to effectively suppress recurrence and alleviate symptoms.

Additionally, patients with bronchial asthma should maintain a diet that is light, easy to supplement, high in protein, and sufficient in calories in their daily lives. They should avoid consuming cold, greasy, and irritating foods such as pepper and fresh ginger. They should also avoid food containing allergens that can trigger asthma recurrence, such as fish, shrimp, crab, eggs, and milk.
