Hi,Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It appears to be the bronchitis, means the infection of the bronchial tree, and lung tissue.If the allergy is more,or the infection is more, may lead to the C.O.P.D.
I advise you to consult a chest physician for diagnosis and treatment.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms cifixime,phenylphrine hydrchloride,ammonium chloride,and paracetamol.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
