Question
From early October, there has been a runny nose, slight cough, and then a severe cough and wheezing. The coughing was very severe around 6 a.m. An X-ray diagnosis revealed pediatric bronchitis, which was later diagnosed as pediatric bronchial asthma. Daily intravenous treatment has been administered, but how can this disease be treated to recover faster?
Answer
Generally, the treatment principle for pediatric bronchial asthma involves using various measures during acute attacks to relieve bronchospasm, improve lung ventilation function, and control infection. Treatment for acute asthma attacks primarily includes oxygen therapy, bronchodilators, and corticosteroids. The types and dosages of medications depend on the severity of the asthma attack. For your child’s condition, I would recommend oxygen therapy!
