Hello and welcome in Ask the Doctor

I can understand your concern but could you provide some more information regarding such as : your age, smoking status other diseases or other treatment you are currently taking in order I can help you further?

However in general if you have chronic dry cough , resting or moving difficulty in breathing or chest tiredness ,(all of them in combination or not) than we can assume that we have a returning asthma.

Hopefully to have helped you.

Detailed Answer:
Hi again

Ok the fact that you have stopped smoking it's a very important step in an asthmatic patient.
Now you should take in consideration the other signs and symptoms I explained above. If you have one of them but in a continuous way than we can think that your asthma has come back. Try to avoid also air pollution environment because it exacerbate asthm too.
