General & Family Physician 's  Response
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

At his age, age 2, he is expected to experience up to 10 colds a year because his immune system is now developing.
Most of these are viral and would not respond to antibiotics.

When he gets a cold, there is an increased chance that he may wheeze, his doctor may suggest altering his medication at this point to prevent this.

To help with his immunity, you can consider (1)making sure he uses a wide range of fruits and vegetables
(2)the probiotics in yogurt may be helpful if he likes these
(3) a multivitamin
Some children may grow out of reactive airway disease as they age.

I hope this helps
I find this answer helpful
