Pulmonologist,  's  Response
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Acute breathing difficulties can be due to acute bronchitis or asthma.
So better to consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system, chest x ray and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test).
You may need inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or salmeterol) and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) (budesonide or fluticasone).
Do warm water gargles and steam inhalation 4-5 times a day.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
