Question
The patient often catches colds, has a runny nose, asthma, and wheezing, appears pale and thin, and has a low weight. How can pediatric asthma be permanently cured?
Answer
This condition falls under allergic bronchitis, which usually presents with symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, coughing, and chest tightness before an attack. If not treated promptly, it may lead to breathing difficulties or a persistent asthmatic state. Treatment begins with identifying allergens and proceeding with desensitization therapy. For acute symptoms, inhaled corticosteroids such as beclomethasone dipropionate or salbutamol inhalers are commonly used, along with the administration of corticosteroids. At the same time, active control of inflammation is essential.
