[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. By your history and description, possibility of asthma is more likely in your sons case. Recurrent wheezing and coughing in child Chat Doctor. So better to consult pediatrician and get done clinical examination of respiratory system and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test).PFT will not only diagnose asthma, but it will also tell you about severity of the disease and treatment is based on severity only. He will need inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or albuterol) and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) (budesonide or fluticasone). Oral combination of antihistamine (levocetrizine or fexofenadine) and anti-allergic (montelukast) once a day at night is also useful. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your son. Thanks.
