My 9 yr old son s heart is beating faster. Has cough and cold but no fever. He has asthma but was medicine free for past six months. Its been 15 days I again started giving him QVAR regularly because he started coughing alot. Right now for past few days I ve been giving him proventolin as needed. Please let me know what he might be going through.

Hello,
As he have asthma, Please continue the steroids as prescribed by your doctor. Better rule out any lung infections if he any difficulty in breathing or fever or any poor feeding or weight loss.
Hope this helps.
