Hi, If I were your treating Doctor for your case , I would come up with three possibilities, these include:

1. allergic conditions including aspergillosis
2. metabolic condition including cystic fibrosis
3. infective conditions like tuberculosis or worms!

You have to test your sputum and a CT Scan of the chest.

Take antibiotics and expectorant cough syrups.

Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.

Wishing you good health.
