hi,
Thanks and welcome to healthcare magic.
Your history suggests that she may be suffering from bronchial asthma.
usually exaggerated by viral infection like cold.
she needs a beta agonist like salbutamol and a mucous expectorant like bromhexine 3times daily along with monteleucast and ebastine an anti histaminic preparation daily once.
Avoiding trigger factors like cold, certain foods as well as smoke and dust.
Consult pulmonologist if needed.
Hope this reply is OK for you.
