you are having allergy
asthma is also allergic in almost 90% cases
at present you can use short course of steroids
with tab montelucast 10 mg bd
bronchodilator syp bd and anti allergic syp at night
after the episode is over get for allergy tests to find out allergens
avoid avoidable allergens and treat dusts and others by sublingual immunotherapy as this is the latest known permanent treatment according to international research
