Hello and thanks for the query.
You seem to be suffering from bronchial asthma( allergic)
You must consult a pulmonologist and get the lung function tests done.
Once these tests are done,your lung specialist will be in a better position to advise the treatment.
In the mean time ,pending your consultation with pulmonologist,you should take steam inhalation twice a day along with avoidance of cold and chilled drinks and taking more of hot drinks so that the phlegm can be expectorated with ease.
I hope to have answered your query however you may revert to me for any other query.
Thanks and best of luck.

Hello
Antibiotics are prescribed when they are necessary.
There is no point taking antibiotics recklessly as it leads to antibiotic resistance.
You must consult a pulmonologist and get yourself investigated and diagnosed properly.
Once the diagnosis is made,treatment becomes easy.
Thanks and best of luck.
