Suggest Treatment For Runny Nose, Cough And Rash On The Legs In Children
My 1 year old daughter has very dark circles under her eyes. She also has had a runny nose, a cough and a sever rash on her legs and arms. She was diagnosed with Asthma at a young age. I am certain she has some sort of allergy, but her doctor won t do anything. We have taken her in 6 times in the last 8 weeks, with no results. I am at a loss of what to do. I know she is miserable!

Cough, cold, runny nose rash etc. suggest possibility of viral infection or allergy.
As your daughter is already diagnosed to have asthma, probably complaints of your daughter are due to allergy.
Episodes of cough, runny nose, chest congestion occur due to exposure to allergens.
You will need to identify what is triggering such episodes. It may be allergens like pollens, dust, mite etc, Some times chemicals like perfumes, mosquito repellents etc.
Adequate treatment may not be as effective if exposure to allergens is continued.
Ask your doctor for medications like Citrizine, Xylomist Drops, Nembulisation​ with Budecort and Levolin, Montelukast etc.
If no relief consult pediatric pulmonologist for further evaluation.
