Hi
Welcome to healthcaremagic
In your child diagnosis is HRAD ( HYPER REACTIVE AIRWAY DISEASE ) Since it started at 1.5 yrs he needs to be investigated for GERD by doing MILK SCAN.Start him on long term monteleukast and budecort inhaler for 3 months after consulting your doctor.If milk scan comes positive then he can be treated accordingly.
Happy to help you
Best regards
