Recurrent Wheezing treatment in San Luis Potosí

Recurrent wheezing consists of repeated episodes of a whistling sound while breathing, especially when exhaling, that reflect a narrowing of the airways and that in childhood tend to recur in response to certain triggers.

Common causes: They are often related to viral respiratory infections, exposure to smoke or allergens, and greater sensitivity of the airways.

Warning signs:

• Whistling while breathing that returns at different times.
• Cough that worsens at night or with exercise.
• Rapid breathing or noticeable effort to breathe.

Who to see? The pediatric pulmonologist is the professional who studies children's breathing and follows up on these repeated episodes. If your child has frequent wheezing or trouble breathing, the advisable step is to seek an evaluation to find out what is causing it.
