Your health concern is really appreciated
i will suggest you some life style modifications and basic tips first
start wearing mask when go outside.if it is cold at your place,keep urself warm take warm fluids and do steam inhalation by simply boiling the water,putting a spoon of iodex or vicks in it and inhale steam for 15 minutes atleast.take boiled egg with black pepper on it
use any antihistamine like loratidine which is non sedating at night.A cough Syrup with Diphenhydramine and Acefyllin Piperazine combination 2 table spoon three times a day.you also need to take a montelukast 10mg once evreyday for once a day for asthma symptoms
also see a physician for long term treatment
