Pediatric Tip:

All that wheezes isn’t asthma. It may be food allergies. If your child has coughing and wheezing and a sudden or even delayed asthma attack following some specific foods, it may be food allergies. Talk to your pediatrician about getting them tested.

Check out The Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Network for helpful information regarding food allergies.
