Signs of an Attack
It can happen to all children: an asthma attack. Also called an asthma flare-up or an asthma episode, an attack is a worsening of asthma symptoms caused when muscles tighten around your child’s airways, which are already swollen.
Alert
During the impending attack, the airway lining becomes further inflamed or swollen, and a thick layer of mucus is produced. This causes symptoms such as labored breathing, wheezing, coughing, and shortness of breath. Other symptoms include: a pale and sweaty face; chest pressure; harsh wheezing when inhaling or exhaling; repeat coughing; tightened chest and neck muscles; chest pains; blue lips or fingernails; and trouble talking.
