Asthma
Services - Illness
At Little Spurs Pediatric Urgent Care, your trusted kid’s urgent care, our urgent care pediatrics providers are happy to evaluate and treat your child for asthma. We highly recommend they have a primary care provider for persistent issues, but we are available for emergencies, such as an asthma attack.
Asthma does not go away when your child is not having symptoms. The airways are still inflamed. Your child needs to have a treatment plan, called an Asthma Action Plan, and close follow-up by a healthcare provider.
