Asthma And Children







 

Asthma And Children
Shannon Miller

Millions of children, all over the world have asthma. If it’s your child, you know how hard it can be on him or her (not to mention on you). Here are a few facts about asthma in children that might help put your mind at some ease.

Facts about kids and asthma

• When 1 or both parents have asthma, there is a greater likelihood that their child will have it, too.

• Asthma can begin at any age. Up to 80% of children with asthma experienced symptoms for the first time before aged 5 years. However, diagnosing asthma in infants and young children can be difficult because some infections and viruses can cause similar symptoms.

• At a young age, asthma is more common in boys than in girls. By adulthood, however, this is no longer the case.

• Many children may appear to outgrow asthma. Symptoms often disappear during the teen years, but they sometimes return later in life.

• With proper treatment, your child with asthma should be able to be active and participate in normal activities.

• Asthma is a chronic condition. Even when symptoms aren’t noticeable, the underlying condition is always there. That’s why if your child’s doctor has prescribed asthma medicine, it’s important for your child to keep taking it as directed.

Having a child with asthma I know how stressful it can be. I am concerned about his asthma, but it helps to know that he may not suffer from this condition his whole life. With the right care and intervention now can make a difference in his little life later. These are just a few simple facts about Asthma. I hope you find them informative and that they do help you in some way that will put your mind at ease.
