When the climate is humid and rainy, and air pollution is severe, many people may experience allergic symptoms. Especially for infants and young children, their respiratory tract is sensitive and fragile, which can easily trigger respiratory related diseases. Among them, parents are most concerned about infant asthma, which can even affect daily life in severe cases. So how to improve children's asthma symptoms? How can we avoid an outbreak?
Generally speaking, asthma caused by allergens can be detected through blood tests to identify the factors that cause allergies and determine if the child has a specific allergen condition. If there are abnormal values in the blood, such as an abnormal increase in E-type immunoglobulin or eosinophils, it usually represents an allergic disease, such as inhalation allergies caused by dust mites, dust, and animal hair. It is more appropriate to wait until the child is 3 years old before drawing blood, as the immune system of infants and young children is not yet mature and they have less exposure to allergens.
Principles of medication for asthma
1. Soothing medication can be used to relax excessive bronchial contractions, alleviate symptoms such as wheezing, difficulty breathing, and chest tightness. Anshen medicine can only relieve asthma, without anti-inflammatory effects, and cannot truly solve asthma.
2. Asthma is a chronic respiratory inflammatory disease that requires the use of anti-inflammatory drugs for treatment. There are many commonly used therapeutic drugs that can be taken according to the guidance of a doctor. If the condition is severe, one must pay more attention and not self medicate.
