Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Avoid cool atmosphere an cool drinks and ice creams.
Usually these things trigger an attack of asthma.
If you can identify any triggering factor,better avoid it.
Any bronchodilator syrup containing Salbutamol 3 times daily help to reduce or prevent wheezing.
If it becomes severe or no relief with above measures,better see pediatrician.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
