Pulmonologist 's  Response
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, possibility of post infectious bronchitis is more.
It is common after viral upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) like common cold.
Bronchitis can cause breathing difficulty and wheezing (sound from chest).
So consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system and PFT (pulmonary function test).
PFT will also tell you about severity of the disease. You may need inhaled bronchodilator (formoterol or salmeterol) and inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) (fluticasone or budesonide).
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
