ASTHMA:
Asthma is one of the most common chronic medical conditions in children. Many children with asthma miss out on school, sports, and numerous other activities.
However, it is a GOAL of asthma management that these children do anything that a child without asthma can.
It is IMPORTANT for family members to learn how to identify and avoid asthma and allergen triggers, recognize and prevent asthma attacks, understand medications, and help manage asthma at home.
