My 2 yr old son is sick with wheezy bronchitis and he is on a puffer for it. But I myself have asthma and have had it for basically 22 yrs and never grew out of it and his uncle on his father side had asthma his whole childhood and grew out of it when he became a teenager. I am just wondering what the difference is between asthma and wheezy bronchitis? And if maybe I should take my son to see an asthma specialist to make sure he doesnt have asthma as well.?
Hi... Thank you for consulting in Chat Doctor. Greetings from Chennai. Wheezing less than 5 years age cannot be labeled as asthma. By what you quote I feel what your kid could be having viral associated wheeze or multi triggered wheeze. I have a few questions for you -Questions
