Question

What are the main symptoms of pediatric asthma? How is it treated?

Answer

Asthma is an allergic disease characterized by high airway reactivity and chronic inflammation. The main symptoms include airway spasm, narrowing, obstruction, hypoxia, and difficulty breathing. Treatment focuses on reducing airway reactivity and eliminating chronic inflammation, while also relieving bronchospasm and improving oxygenation. Treatment should be maintained long-term even during the remission period.
