Asthma symptoms in children ages 5-11. Common asthma signs and symptoms in children ages 5 to 11 include: 1  Coughing, particularly at night. 2  Wheezing. 3  Difficulty breathing. 4  Chest pain, tightness or discomfort. 5  Avoiding or losing interest in sports or physical activities.
In 2009, asthma resulted in approximately 480,000 hospitalizations, 1.9 million emergency department (ED) visits, and nearly 9 million doctorsâ office visits (4). As the third leading cause of hospitalization among children younger than 15, asthma is associated with increased ED visits (5).tate estimates for the number of asthma ED visits for children younger than 18 were estimated by taking the total number of ED visits nationally (estimated by the NHAMCS-ED) and apportioning the visits to the states based on estimates of the number of Medicaid/CHIP enrollees with asthma in the state.
