Hi welcome to HCM...

You are having chronic cough and cold problem...

For rule out asthma or COPD like case investigate with Spirometry that is pulmonary function test ....

If asthma present in spirometry than treatment for that started ....

If on auscultation bronchoconstriction present than salmetrol like bronchodilator given....

Excess cough can lead damage to blood vessel and hemoptysis can occur ...
But it usually not leads aneurysm...

If troublesome dry cough there than dextromethorphan or codein syrup can be given....

Take care

So investigate with spirometry and chest x ray after consulting pulmonologist ...
