HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, in absence of other symptoms it is nothing to worry and it may not be due to any disease, still just to rule out dome respiratory disease better to get done the x-ray of chest and routine blood test,, at the most antihistamine can be used on tentative basis and best option is Tab Loratadine three times in day, hope this information helps.
