HI
Your child is suffering from moderately persistent bronchial asthma.you are taking foracort and levolin mdi regularly,avoid triggers like dust,pollen,sudden change in temperature,any other inhalant allergen.usually childhood asthma resolves as the age advances,it usually completely resolves in 90% children at the age of 12 years.take the inhalers regularly and with proper method after consulting your pediatrician.
good luck
