Several factors can contribute to asthma in children, such as heredity, pollen, air quality, and weather conditions.
We will evaluate your child and make a formal diagnosis and provide a customized treatment plan that helps manage their symptoms.
Although every child will exhibit different signs of asthma, there are a few common signs that let you know asthma is present. Most children will struggle with an uncontrollable cough, shortness of breath, wheezing, or chest congestion. Even if your child doesn’t struggle with these, watch for early signs like changes in normal breathing or frequent congestion and mucus.
Children can experience asthmatic triggers at any time. Common triggers like poor air quality or weather changes can trigger asthmatic symptoms or even an asthma attack.
Pediatricians review several factors when diagnosing asthma. Family history, current living conditions, medical history, and physical signs are the primary factors we consider. We will evaluate your child and create a special treatment plan to help them recover.
