How Do We Cure Cough-Variant Asthma?
Anonymous asked 8 years ago My daughter has suffered from these since birth and she gets these severe bouts of cough attack, which won’t stop easily. The doctors in USA analysed that it is sort of asthma, even though it is not the wheezing kind. They said it can lead to regular asthma. Please advise.
Uma Maheshwari - Dietitian Staff answered 8 years ago Hi,
How old is your daughter now?
Is it dry cough or cough with sputum?
If the diagnosis is asthma, then keep her away from dust, pollen, cockroaches, and anything that could cause allergy in her. Give her plain steam inhalation 2 – 3 times a day, if she shows any symptom relating to cold or cough. If you let me know the nature of cough, I can provide you with a solution.

Dr Swapan Banerjee - Dietitian Staff answered 8 years ago Hi-Happy to help you. I can advice to find out sensitivity of products/subjects you can have ELIZA tests by which you can clear for what ingredients she is suffering.Then you have to stop or aware of intake/ avoid.Like pollution, some foods,,dust,rust,mites, cotton, pets, Mainly for Asthma carbon mono oxide is highly responsible which causes some times lung cancer apart from Asthma or allergies.So have proper tests under a specialist’s super vision.Thanks
