Asthma management in children
Asthma management in children involves a comprehensive approach to control symptoms and prevent episodes. This includes using daily medications, such as inhaled corticosteroids, to reduce inflammation and quick-relief inhalers for emergencies. Parents and caregivers should learn to identify triggers like allergens or exercise, and work with healthcare providers to create an individualized asthma action plan. Regular check-ups are essential to monitor lung function and adjust treatment as needed. Education on proper inhaler technique and recognizing early signs of worsening asthma is crucial for keeping children active and healthy.
