Child
Asthma Treatment - Which Are the Signs Telling You That Your Child Has Asthma
Sometimes, understanding what troubles your children can be quite a difficult task. This is mainly because children find it hard to explain the sensations they get when doing one or another thing and most of the times do not find the words to explain what exactly do they feel. Thus, discovering which the cause of your children's "pains" is, may not be a very pleasant or rewarding exercise.
Yet,
when your child is not feeling good, you will have to observe them and ask them
basic questions about the sensations they get when doing particular things,
like running, playing or sleeping.
Asthma is one of the most common diseases which
affects children. This is why it is highly important to know which its symptoms
are. This will give you a clear idea about what you have to do next, plus it
will function as a basis on which you can set your further observations.
The
first thing you will have to know about asthma is that it affects your children's capacity
of breathing. Thus, if your little one coughs frequently, has a rapid breathing
or a whistling sound can be heard when breathing normally, then you should take
your child to a doctor, who can confirm if what your child has is asthma. Most
of the children usually have these symptoms when playing, sleeping or when
laughing or crying, so you should pay attention to the way they act in each and
every situation.
Also,
asthma is associated with pains in the chest and tightened neck and chest
muscles, so you should inquire your child if they feel some kind of pain or tightness
when breathing or playing. These symptoms may vary from child to child, so that
it is not necessary for all children to experience these pains in order to be
asthmatics.

Asthma Treatment – How Do I Know If My Child Has Asthma?
Shortness
of breathing, tiredness, lack of energy, as well as periods of weakness can
also be part of the asthma symptomatology. Yet, before actually jumping to the
conclusion that your child has asthma, make sure that you also take them to a
doctor, which can confirm or infirm the diagnosis. But it is absolutely
necessary that you visit a doctor when your child has one (sometimes even cough
alone can be a sign of asthma) or more of these symptoms.
Child
Asthma Treatment – How to Treat Children Suffering of Asthma
Asthma is a condition with which gets hard to live even for an adult. The younger the person suffering of asthma is, the more problematic will be to live with this ailment. Thus, children find it extremely hard to cope with this situation, especially because they do not fully understand their condition and are not able to control their emotions. This is why, asthmatic children need to be given special attention, both when they are at home or with their parents and when they are at school.
In
order to prepare your child to cope with asthma as good as possible, it is necessary
to explain them, as much as they can understand, what is asthma, what it will
happen to them during and asthma attack and what are they supposed to do in
severe cases or in the situations when their parents are no around. This will
enable the child to regain some of their confidence and to start regarding
asthma as something they will have to face without being afraid of it.
Once
your child knows exactly what they have to do when they are left alone, it is
absolutely necessary to start cleaning the toys, throw those that cannot be
cleaned in hot water, clean the entire house and eliminate all the dust mites
and bacteria which may be stored inside the house. It may take a little time to
get used with all these routines, but always keep in mind that the less your
child will come in contact with allergens, bacteria and dust mites, the rarer
the asthma attacks will be.
In
addition to cleaning your house it is also important to see where your child
learns and if the classrooms are clean enough to offer your child a proper
breathing. Ask the teachers to show you the classroom and if you spot any dust
mites or other similar allergens which may threaten your child's health, ask
for permission to clean the room yourself.
Also,
let the teachers, nurses and even school bus drive know that your child has
asthma and share with them their asthma action plan. Thus, you will be sure
that they know exactly how to act in case your child has an asthma attack while
they are away from home.
Children
asthmatic children can have a relatively normal life if minimal hygiene
measures are taken and if the people around them are informed about the way in
which these children should be treated.
