Follow your son's asthma action plan as outlined by his physician. A virtual consultation is available from Healthtap. The symptoms are consistent with an upper respiratory infection which is a known potential trigger of asthma. A humidifier with distilled water may be used for comfort and discuss nasal saline to reduced post nasal drip. The humidifier does not require medication.
