What You Need to Know about Your Child’s Asthma

You’ve noticed lately that your child coughs, wheezes, and has trouble in breathing. Frequent coughs during the night also add up your worry.
The symptoms above may indicate that your child has asthma. It’s a very common disease in babies and children.
When you child gets asthma, the tubes that bring air to the lungs are irritated and swollen. This condition affects your child to breathe. You may find that your child makes a whistle sound when he or she breathes.
How to tell if your child has asthma?
It might be difficult to determine this. But if he or she coughs frequently, your family has asthma and allergy history, and your or your spouse has them too, there’s a big chance that your child gets asthma either.
How to prevent asthma attacks?
1. Avoid asthma attacks by keeping your child away from the allergens, which are the triggers of the disease. Dust, mold, pollen, air pollution, tobacco smoke, strong emotions, sinus infections, spray-on deodorants, cold air, and viral infection are among these allergens.
2. Prevent your child from stuffed animals, carpets, and anything that can catch dust.
3. If you have a fireplace, try to avoid it, too. The smoke can annoy your child’s respiration.
4. Keep your child inside the house if the weather or the air is not good.
5. Let your child join in normal activities, but not hard exercises.
How to treat it?
Using nebulizer is a common medication for asthma patients. Use it as directed by your pediatrician or asthma specialist.
He may also prescribe drugs to stop an attack, which make your child breathes easier. These ones are called quick-reliever.
Or, another kind of drugs, known as controllers, will be prescribed to prevent an attack. Your doctor may help you decide which is best for your child.
Always prepare for proper medications anytime. If you don’t have any when the attacks strike, go to the emergency room right away to get an immediate treatment.
If not treated well, or if it’s delayed, asthma can lead to a fatal condition. So, above all, communicate with the doctor on how to build a plan to prevent and deal with asthma attacks.

Good Study Habits for Your Teens
Some parents can find difficulties to let their children study. One of the solutions is to set up several rules for them for a better study habit.
Here are some tips:
• Turn off the TV set – TV is commonly the biggest temptation for your teens while they’re at home. When it comes to study times, turn the TV off so they will concentrate on their study or homework. However, let a radio or a music player on as sometimes it can help your teens absorb the lessons.
• Choose a special are for studying – This place should be at a minimum level of distraction. It could be your teens’ room or any other places in the house as long as it has a table to support their learning activities. Keep equipments, such as pencils, pens, and papers on hand every time your teens need them.
• Notice the signs of frustration – When you see your teens show a sign of weariness, it’s best to stop the study. An uncomfortable situation can cause them lose their enthusiasm to the study. They can start it again when they’re relaxed.
