Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Recurrent cough and cold is mostly due to allergic rhinitis. And breathing problems in such patients is suggestive of asthma more. So better to consult pulmonologist and get done PFT (Pulmonary Function Test).PFT will diagnose asthma and its severity. You will need intranasal spray containing steroid (fluticasone), inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or albuterol) and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) (budesonide or fluticasone). Oral combination of antihistamine (levocetrizine or fexofenadine) and anti-allergic (montelukast) is also useful. So don't start Chat Doctor.  Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
