HAE Attacks – Types, Causes, Triggers, Symptoms, Treatment and Prevention

Support Children with HAE

It can be difficult for children and teenagers to learn how to cope with HAE attacks. They tend to show both emotional symptoms, such as anxiety, sadness, or fear, and physical signs, such as discomfort or pain. The first step to support your little ones is to talk to them about the condition. This can help them prepare for an attack and learn suitable strategies to cope with these symptoms. Make sure to share your experiences, so that they will not feel afraid or worried. You can also contact some supporting organizations, which provide helpful tool kits and advice to support children with HAE. [10]
