Dr. Zhou Xiaofeng
Allergic asthma may cause breathing difficulties, coughing, shortness of breath, and increased respiratory rate. If not treated promptly, it may also lead to complications such as allergic rhinitis and allergic dermatitis. Once this disease occurs, patients can, under a doctor's guidance, appropriately use medications like budesonide nasal spray, which can effectively alleviate asthma symptoms. However, please note that budesonide nasal spray is recommended for use in children aged 6 years and older. In daily life, it is important to maintain adequate sleep and take proper protective measures when going outdoors.
