Hi,
These all symptoms are related to lower respiratory tract infection.
You should have an xray chest.
Take regular medication that include
1. An antibiotic such as Leflox 500 once daily for 07 days
2. Oral decongestant such as combination of loratidine and Pseudoephedrine twice daily for 05 days.
3. An antitussive that decreases cough such as Acefyl cough 2 TSF thrice a day for 07 days.
4. For wheezing albuterol and hydrocortisone in inhaler form intermittently.
You will be fine in a day or two
I hope I am successful in solving your query If you have more you can ask me.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Azhar Sattar
