A member asked:
Is it possible for meconium aspiration syndrome to cause asthma?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes related symptoms: Meconium aspiration may lead to pneumonia and injury to the lung. This can cause reactivity of the airway and asthma symptoms. As the baby grows, the lung matures and the injury can be minimized.
