Hi,

Thank you for your query on Healthcare Magic.

The wheezing is due to bronchiolitis which results from the viral infection of small airways.

But recurrent wheezing is seen in bronchial asthma which is aggravated by cold weather and dust.

With first episode it is difficult to conclude the nature of problem.

Is there asthma or atopic diseases in the family?

Wheezing is one time event in children with bronchiolitis, but frequent and recurrent wheezing is a sign and symptom of underlying hyper reactive disease such as asthma, allergic bronchitis.

Continue the medication as advised by the pediatrician and be in follow up.

Hope I have answered your query.

Regards.

Hi,

Thanks for writing to health care magic.

If there is wheezing it could be bronchial asthma. Some children improve with age. They may not have a permanent problem.

This improvement is because of the increase in the size of the airways.
Even though they may have bronchoconstriction this increase in the size of the airways could compensate for that.

Some children particularly those with bronchial asthma family history may continue to have the problem as adults also.

Continue to ask further queries.
Hope this helps.
Take care.
