Child Having Asthma Symptoms, Heart Pain, Breathing Difficulty. Giving Budacort Mixed With Budasel. Curable?
Thanks for writing to healthcare magic
I can understand that your kid has been suffering from allergy and asthma. Asthma can be controlled very well provided:
1) Identify the allergen and avoid those. Special skin test by an allergist or allergen specific IgE levels in blood can help identifying.
2) Continuous proper medicine use (inhaler/nebulizer) supervised and titrated in dose with regards to his baseline severity and intermittent exacerbation
3) Usually kids overgrow their allergies (not all of course). It's difficult to predict who would overgrow their allergies.
4) Avoidance of chemical stimulants like smoking (passive), dust, diesel smoke, agarbathi, perfumes, sprays, mosquito coils will definitely help.
Hope I have cleared some of your doubts. Let me know if you need clarifications.

I understand you are very worried
I can recommend asthma, chest and allergy centre (ACAC) in Gurgaon and Delhi
1. DR JAGGI is available in New Delhi at:
128, XXXXXXX Enclave, New Delhi - 0000, India
Phone-011-0000, 011-0000
(call between 8am to 4pm Monday to Saturday)
2. Should you consider Gurgaon, then you can visit:
U-25/11, DLF-III, Gurgaon, 0000, Haryana, India
You need to consult them to get asthma plan specific for your kid. You have to get allergy test and spirometry (done in ACAC). Even immunotherapy is done properly there

Wishing good health for your kid

As he has all symptons of allegeric asthma how I will know which foods are culprits in his case and triggering to make his situation more worse. My child doesn't eat well he is very very picky about eating and we don't give him cheese, butter, citrus, banana, curd, rice so is there any possibilty of these also being allergens.
Being a mother of two kids one still just 7 months I have very less options left to help my child enjoy tasty tiffins most ingredients are suspected allergens.
I think XXXXXXX kunj is near from my house.. But do i need to still visit Gurgaon for ACAC.
And lastly I want to ask is there any possibility my other child might develop same allergies.
Thank you

Allergy tests will tell you for foods also . You need not omit all the foods which turn positive. It depends if he gets symptoms after that food item or not.
You can visit Delhi or Gurgaon .
