Neonatal congenital asthma symptoms?

summary

Infant asthma refers to the asthma of children under 3 years old, which accounts for a large proportion in the incidence of childhood asthma. Compared with general childhood asthma, the clinical manifestations of infant asthma are more atypical, which is easy to be misdiagnosed or missed diagnosis, thus affecting the targeted treatment, leading to the recurrence of asthma.

Neonatal congenital asthma symptoms?

The most common viruses are rhinovirus, coronavirus, respiratory syncytial virus, influenza virus and parainfluenza virus. Studies have found that some infants may only have a single, mild wheeze.

Acute bronchiolitis usually caused by the first respiratory virus infection. Other infants may have wheezing attacks after each cold and need to be hospitalized every month; Some of them (about 30% - 40%) may have persistent wheezing and eventually develop into typical asthma.

Infants with asthma attack often have cyanosis and nasal alar movement. The prolonged exhalation is not as obvious as that of older children. Wheezing can be heard in the lungs by auscultation, but the wheezing is usually short, low-key, and often accompanied by blister sound.

matters needing attention

In the diagnosis of infantile asthma, special attention should be paid to family and individual atopic history. If the family has asthma, allergic rhinitis or the child has a history of eczema, urticaria, food and drug allergy, the risk of asthma is significantly increased.
