Hi,
Thanks for writing to health care magic.
There could be various causes for recurrent cough and cold. One of the cause could be Wheeze associated respiratory illness. A physical examination will help in identifying the exact cause of the same. Further investigations like blood counts, X ray chest may be required.

Hope this helps.
Take care.
