Greetings Everyone!
Today I am writing about signs in children. The symptoms of Asthma show in children before they have an attack. This can prevent them having to go to the hospital or use their rescue inhaler so much.
Below are somethings that can be spotted in children during respiratory problems:
1. Slowing in Activity: some children will stop all together, some will lay down suddenly, some will sit down and get quiet. Different for each child.
2. Cough at night: Some children will cough a lot at night without any other symptoms of a cold.
3. Show signs of body working to hard: Check the neck and abdomen, if they are showing deep contracting in these spots they are working to breathe.
