Hi,

You are having allergic rhinitis with bronchitis. Do a chest X-ray and pulmonary function test to know the nature of any disease in the lung. Review with spirometry and chest X-ray. Start some bronchodilator tablet, steam inhalation, montelukast levicetrizine combination. Stay away from allergens from valley. Take some warm water gargle, nasal fluticasone spray.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
