Hi ! If you are someone who had recurrent episodes of such breathing difficulty and wheeze on exposure to cold, dust or on catching infection, you are likely to be Asthmatic . You will feel fine once started on right choice of inhalers and short course of oral steroids (if ur wheeze is severe) If you have an Infection you will need a course of oral antibiotics too . Avoid consuming anything cold , exposure to dust.
