Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Zhou Xiaofeng
Childhood bronchial asthma may be caused by the following factors: 1. Exposure to allergens. When a child comes into contact with pollen, dust mites, or animal fur, symptoms of bronchial asthma may be triggered. 2. Genetic factors. If a child's parents or other family members have bronchial asthma, the child may inherit the predisposition. Treatment may include medications such as budesonide nasal spray (for inhalation) and beclomethasone dipropionate nasal spray, under the guidance of a physician. However, budesonide nasal spray is generally recommended for children aged 6 years and older.
