My child is 5yrs old.. Sometimes she whizz.. Is it asthma? Will it continue for lifetime? How to deal with it?

Shipra Mathur

hi, if there is frequent and recurrent wheeze even without viral cough/colds ..yes it is likely to be asthma. It may continue or not depends on several factors including family history, clinical progress etc.It requires medications , often as inhalers and avoidance of known triggers. 2018-09-20 15:08:21

Shipra Mathur

hi, you must get her examined to confirm that it is indeed wheezing or congestion type sounds from the chest. Depending on that, treatment would be started. She may have an allergic tendency if she has frequent colds. 2018-09-20 15:10:23

hi khushboo, if her cough are without fever/viral looking episodes then she may have an allergic tendency that makes her cough.Anti allergics may help and inhalers if there is wheeze too. 2018-09-20 15:13:06

Shipra Mathur

hi Parul, how old is your child...? Frequent sneezing may be allergic rhinitis and blocked nose often causes rapid breathing. But yes, best to be examined so that the severity of symptoms and cause is clear. 2018-09-20 15:18:01

my child wheezing is being repeated with every viral fever or cough-cold. I have been told that if it persists it can cause asthma. please help

Shipra Mathur

hi Surabhi, children below 5 years may wheeze with viral infections....not all of them are asthma as they may settle down with age. If there is a strong family history , wheeze severe and started at early age, wheezes even without infections, other allergies etc - then chances are higher. 2018-09-20 15:22:00

I have a child who falls ill with weather change and experience breathlessness sometimes. to give releif medicines are the only releif...can I try some other remedies too.

Shipra Mathur

hi Nishtha! at that time, yes inhalers etc to relieve symptoms. As a preventor- avoid known triggers plus there are anti allergic medication and inhalers that are prescribed according to the need of the child. You could have that discussion with your local paediatrician. 2018-09-20 15:25:45

My child complains of ear pain after cough and cold and sometimes we have to go to doctor. can we do something to control it before it happens.

Shipra Mathur

Hi Shilpa, use remedies to decongest early to avoid ear discomfort. These could be avoiding cold fluids, steam inhalation if practical, nasal saline drops to keep the nose clear . 2018-09-20 15:28:42

Shipra Mathur

Hi pallavi, you could try home remedies first like warm water and honey to soothe the throat. But if there is wheezing also, then at time use reliever inhalers to control the symptoms. 2018-09-20 15:33:26
