Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic. I can understand your situation and problem. Yes, possibility of spread of infection is high in your case. Asthma patients have higher chance of lung Infection. Since you are asthmatic and your symptoms like cough, breathlessness etc favours possibility of lung Infection more. Your child recently had pneumonia and you are taking care of him. Lung infection spreads through droplet infection by coughing and sneezing. So you might be infected through your child s pneumonia. So better to consult doctor and get done clinical examination of respiratory system and chest x ray to rule out pneumonia. You may need antibiotics, mucolytic and expectorant drugs. Inhaled bronchodilators are also needed if you are having breathlessness. Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.
