Hi thanks for contacting HCM...

You have not mentioned your cough is dry or wet with expectoration....

Here you are complaining wheezing and chest pain also....

You have to consult pulmonologist for examination especially auscultation ...
If rhonchi heard then bronchoconstriction present ....
Cause should be searched for it....
Chest x ray and spirometry needed....
There is possibility of bronchitis or asthma like condition or COPD...
Spirometry also helpful in assessing severity of disease....

If needed theophyllin like bronchodilator given...

If cough dry then antitussive useful like dextromethorphan tablet or syrup....
For wet cough ambroxol needed...

Discuss all these with your consulting doctor and be healthy soon.

Take care
