Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe it appears to be the chest infection, may be the pneumonia,bronchitis,esinophelia,asthma or rarely may be the tuberculosis.
I advise you to consult a chest physician for diagnosis and treatment.
you may need to have a C.T. scan,and other blood tests for confirmation.
Chest infection,esinophelia, and tuberculosis can be cured completely.
Bronchial asthma is a chronic disease, and recurs when ever there is exposure to the allergen like cool wind, dust, wool, cosmetics etc.
By avoiding allergens,can avoid the attacks of the asthma.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms levocitrizine, montelekast,B.D,and triamcinolone40MG fortnightly,to avoid acute attacks of the asthma.
Avoid taking fruits,ice water,ice cream,sea foods,wool etc to avoid allergy, and asthma.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
