any doctor who says your child just has allergy or just bronchitis is doing a crime of not recognising your child's problems and diagnosis as asthma
treat with mdi and continue for at least 5 years.
Sometimes childhood asthma withers / goes away by 12 years of age and may come back in 40's.

You must introduce our herbal breathe care kit besides your usual med. Once the effects come in few weeks, you ll withdraw drugs (your doctor will/ may withdraw) but herbs will continue. See betterment in few months. Pl talk by booking call so that category of asthma may be decided.

Do not worry, it's temporary
take antihistamines
