Hi,
You have mentioned a problem for two weeks.
So bronchitis should be ruled out and to assess severity spirometry should be done along with digital chest x-ray.
If needed for 3-5 days, nebulization of bronchodilator respule can be given. The other option can be short term steroid course.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
