Asthma is one of the most common chronic diseases worldwide, and its incidence is increasing, especially in children. Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways, and this chronic inflammation is an allergic inflammation that is not effectively treated with antibiotics. ● Common risk factors include exposure to allergens such as house dust mites (in items such as bedding, carpets and textile covers or pads on furniture), furred animals, cockroaches, pollen and mold; occupational irritants; tobacco smoke; air pollution; respiratory infections (viruses); exercise, violent mood swings; chemical irritants and medications (e.g., aspirin and β receptor blockers). The onset of asthma has been shown to be familial. ● The severity of asthma can be classified as intermittent, persistent mild, moderate, or severe. Severity varies widely among individuals, is not necessarily related to the frequency and persistence of symptoms, and varies across time for the same individual. Treatment options for asthma depend on its severity. ● Asthma attacks (or exacerbations) are episodic, but airway inflammation is long-lasting. Many patients must take daily medication to control symptoms, improve lung function and prevent attacks. Other medications may be needed to relieve acute symptoms, such as wheezing, chest tightness, and cough. Asthma treatment requires a good partnership between the patient and the health care provider, so that the patient can learn to control asthma under the guidance of the health care provider. Many Olympic athletes, famous leaders, celebrities, and ordinary people have asthma and are living well. ● Asthma can be prevented. For infants with a family history of asthma or atopy, avoiding allergens such as passive smoking, house dust mites, cats and cockroaches may be beneficial in stopping asthma from developing. For adults, avoiding smoking or passive smoking and exposure to chemical sensitizers in the work environment may be beneficial. The incidence of asthma has increased significantly in recent years. In 1995, the incidence rate in five major cities in China reached 5%, and the incidence rate in Qingdao is now about 5%. Without scientific and standardized treatment, about 50% of children can develop into adults with asthma. Asthma is an allergic disease and the most effective treatment is inhaled glucocorticosteroids, supplemented by cisplatin, aminophylline, meprobamate, etc. Inhaled glucocorticosteroids are commonly used in children with asthma, such as pramipex aerosol, pramipex duplex and sulforaphane. What are the possible side effects of inhaled glucocorticosteroids in children with asthma? Inhaled glucocorticosteroids are locally administered and have the advantages of small dosage and high efficacy, but they can also produce certain side effects. Will hormone inhalation affect my child’s growth and development? The latest data show that the growth rate of a small number of children may be slightly affected during high doses of inhaled glucocorticosteroids, but the overall growth is not affected after reducing to maintenance doses or stopping the medication. The key to achieving asthma control To free your little one from the pain of asthma attacks, you must insist on long-term medication, especially when the asthma is in remission, that is, when there are no coughing and wheezing symptoms, and never reduce the dose or stop the medication as soon as the symptoms are controlled.
