Asthmatic 5 month old grandchild

My sweet-faced baby grandson has been diagnosed with asthma, which his mother also has and she has been hospitalized for. Both are on prednisone and I am worried sick over them. Plus ever since he wa born he rattles in his throat or chest(?) while breathing and spits up his milk after he eats.

Is there any remedies for one so small and his mother?

Dear Sir,

The best way to treat a baby like your grandson is to treat his or her mother properly. Please consult a qualified experience Homoeopath personally and try to cure baby's mother at first. Because the baby is taking mothers breast milk he or she will be also benefited from mothers treatment.

Best wishes,

Not breast feeding now, don't remember the reasons why except he was vomiting it up. So went to bottle.

Given this info, do you still cure the mom first and if so, what would you suggest for her to use?. She is 24 yrs old and has been diagnosed with asthma for 5-6 yrs. Only other health problem is severe fibromyalgia and maybe a small amount of osteoarthritis.

Sorry missed your statement on seeing a Homeopath. Barely surviving financially and can't afford one. So can you suggest anything?

Dear Sir,

If a medical practitioner can understand a child’s parents properly than it will be easier for him/her to treat the baby. So, my opinion is for treating his mother at first.

A Homeo remedy is always selected on the basis of totality of symptoms. The effectiveness of remedy selection is directly proportional to the details provided by patient. Please ask her mother for the answer of the following questions in a descriptive manner after careful analysis and recollection of previous experiences and happenings. On that basis someone may help her and her son too. Please give as much information as she can.

Age: Children: Occupation: Habits (like smoking/ alcohol/ tobacco, partying etc):

1) Family Medical History:
