Dr. Gopal Samdani

Paediatrics

Your child may be suffering from Asthama. Asthma can be hard to diagnose. Your child's doctor will consider the nature and frequency of symptoms and may use tests to rule out other conditions and to identify the most likely cause of his or her symptoms. A number of childhood conditions can have symptoms similar to those caused by asthma. To make things more complicated, these conditions also commonly co-occur with asthma. So your child's doctor will have to determine whether your child's symptoms are caused by asthma, a condition other than asthma, or both asthma and another condition.

My 3 years child having cough from 4 days . I am giving him ambrodil please suggest

Dr. Pranav Gupta

Paediatrics

Most coughs and colds are viral induced illness. For such illness, the best we can offer is a symptom specific treat. Paracetamol available over the counter can be used for fever. Please use saline nasal drops to open blocked nose. I would advise you to get your kid examined by a paediatrician if symptoms persists or worsen.Your queries were being answered by paediatrician Pranav Gupta, New Delhi.
