Cough variant asthma in children is mostly related to allergies and environmental changes. It can be treated by lifestyle interventions such as avoiding allergens, increasing or decreasing clothing, or medications.
1. Lifestyle intervention: Cough variant asthma in children is often caused by allergies, and it is important for children to avoid contact with allergens once they have been identified. Cough variant asthma in children may also be affected by environmental factors such as temperature changes, in which case it is usually recommended to increase or decrease the amount of clothing for children in a timely manner. Daily life should be away from dust, pollen, cigarettes and other irritating odors, to maintain indoor ventilation.
3. Medication: Children with cough variant asthma are often treated with inhaled glucocorticosteroids such as budesonide inhalation aerosol and anti-leukotrienes such as montelukast sodium. It is recommended to choose an individualized treatment management plan under the guidance of a doctor and adhere to the treatment for a long period of time.
If the diagnosis is confirmed to be childhood variant cough asthma, early and regular treatment is recommended. Drugs need to be used under the guidance of a doctor, to avoid self-medication.
