Hello,
Cough with wheezing may be due to bronchial asthma, or acute bronchitis may be due to viral or bacterial infection. Allergy itself may cause above problems, avoid cool drinks and freeze water, avoid smoking and caffeine drinks. Use tablet dyphylline twice a day for five days. If symptoms not improved, please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
