Asthma or Bronchitis diagnosis scares parents a lot, specially Indian parents. It is a big taboo. So much so, they are OK calling it Pneumonia, Bronchitis, Chest allergy.
Interestingly, they all are synonyms or names of Asthma
What is Asthma? Simply, chest allergy. Some children have skin allergies, frequent sneezing, eye allergy etc. This is exactly the same.
How do I know if my child has asthma?
If your child has
- Frequent cough
- Wheezing
- Trouble breathing
- A tight feeling in their chest
- Reoccurring bronchitis
- Fatigue and coughing during exercise
- Coughs and colds that last longer than other kids’
- Coughs and colds that get worse at night
They might be having chest allergy or asthma, specially if these episodes are frequent. They can occur during change of season or only in winters or maybe year round.
Like all allergies most cases are easily treated.
When to see a doctor?
Take your child to see the doctor if you suspect he or she has asthma. Early treatment will help control symptoms and possibly prevent asthma attacks.
What can cause Asthma to my child?
Childhood asthma causes aren't fully understood. Some factors thought to be involved include:
- Inherited tendency to develop allergies
- Parents with asthma
- Some types of airway infections at a very young age
- Exposure to environmental factors, such as cigarette smoke or other air pollution
Treatment of Asthma is two fold - Prevention and medical care.
You need to recognise the triggers for your child's allergy attacks - Exposure to cold, dust mites, change of season, post viral infection etc.
Good news is that taking Immunity Boosters can decrease the severity or frequency of Asthma in kids.
One vitamin that has shown faster recovery in chest allergy is Vitamin D and the other is Zinc mineral. Vitamin D helps in improving immunity and Zinc makes the lungs strong. Kindly read the study below
