Hi,
Thanks and welcome ti healthcare magic.
Your history suggests that your baby may be suffering from bronchiolitis /asthma.
If it is bronchiolitis it subsides completely .
But if it is asthma it may persist upo adolescence .
Those who develop asthma before 1-2years usually become normal by adolescent time.
You may see a pulmonologist /pediatrician for further advice and follow up .
Hope this answer serves your purpose .
Please feel free to ask further queries if any.
