You have to be investigated. Chest x ray and sputum for afb to rule out tb. If there is no tuberculosis then go for spirometry. You should consult pulmonologist.

Dear Lybrate lybrate-user, grinllictus & antibiotic have limited role in wheezing problem.
It would be advisable to get a chest xray & pft test done, to diagnose your health issue.
You can use asthalin rotainhaler as per your need (for a short period of time).
Wishing you speedy recovery.
