Many ways: An asthma specialist will confirm the diagnosis of asthma and determine the severity. Then, identify the triggers of asthma so avoidance measures can be implemented (80% of kids with asthma have allergies); find a daily controller medication if persistent asthma is diagnosed; review when and how to use a quick relief medication to relieve symptoms; provide an asthma action plan; arrange follow up.
