Asthma acting up more frequently

Update posted by Irhamna Taib

Just last night, Ihsan started showing signs of runny nose, coughing with phlegm and slight fever. He caught the cold bug from my Older child and husband who have just recovered from their colds right before Hari Raya. I do not understand why his asthma is occurring more frequently now. This is his 3rd time this year. We are monitoring him and will definitely bring him to A&E again by tomorrow if there's no improvements tonight. I've given him his nasal spray, nasal drops, vitamins and even his inhaler quite often since the wee hours of this morning. Feeling quite defeated at the moment.

On a side note, Dr Sato has replied to my email. Still trying to find means on how to make another visit to Hannan-Chuo Hospital again. If there is no other way, we will try light phototherapy here in KKH for his skin but I'm trying to avoid that treatment since it's advisable only for children above 12 years old and adults.
