Pediatric questions
A 5 year old child and her mother present to your clinic. The mother reports that the child has had a cough and sounds "wheezy" for the last 2 days. She states that the child always gets like this when she is sick. She also reports that the child has been complaining that her right ear hurts. In addition, you notice dry scaly patches on the child's elbows and behind her knees.
What are your differentials and diagnosis, write the rationales:
1-Asthma exacerbation: primary diagnosis:
2-Bronchiolitis causing ear infection:
3-Eczema (Atopic dermatitis):
What would you prescribe for each condition (treatment with references).
