Hi thanks for contacting HCM...

Here you can have bronchitis or allergic inflammation.....

Chances of allergic bronchoconstriction seems more as you had history of wheezing also while sleeping . ..

I would suggest you to investigate with complete CBC with differential count also ...
Chest x ray and spirometry .....

If CBC shows eosinophilia than allergic cause and if shows neutrophils more chance of bacterial cause .....
For infection levofloxacin antibiotic given for five days. ...

For cough expectoration mucolytic ambroxol given....

For allergic inflammation Allegra tablet given for ten days. ...

If dyspnea present and rhonchi heard on auscultation than nebulization given with levosalbutamol and budesonide ....

Steam inhalation done three times a day. ..

Consult pulmonologist for examination ...

Take care ....
