Brief Answer:
Yes, it is curable.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on Ask a doctor forum.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, possibility of asthma is more likely.
So in my opinion, you should definitely consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination, chest x ray and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test).
PFT will not only diagnose asthma but it will also tell you about severity of the disease and treatment is based on severity only.
You will need inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or salmeterol) and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) (budesonide or fluticasone).
You may also need combination of antihistamine (levocetrizine or fexofenadine) and anti allergic (montelukast).
So please let me know
1. Do you have any allergies?
2. Have you ever consulted pulmonologist?
Please reply me answers of above asked questions, so that I can guide you better. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
