Hi doctor.. My daughter who is 7 years old is frequently getting sick with cough, cold and fever. Cough is persisting for long time. Are they symptoms of asthma? Do I need to get her any tests to diagnose asthma?

A. To confirm it you need to get a chest examination done do discuss all your doubts with your doctor abd follow his advice and try enrolling the child in some outdoor activity as it will help in improving her overall strength avd improve her lung functioning as well
