A member asked:
What can i do if my 2 year old niece starts to cough as soon as she becomes active.. can that be asthma?

Probable: Since children can't give you a good history, coughing at night, with exertion, or with laughing is often a hint. The good news is that many young children do ' out grow' their asthma around age 7 but you should really ask your doctor to look into it.
