Are Coughing And Wheezing Allergy Symptoms?

Never been diagnosed with allergies before, but the past week I have been coughing a lot and wheezing a bit. I don't feel sick though. Some people have told me that they feel the same and have allergies (airborne like pollen). Ragweed grows prevalent on our farm. Could I have an allergy?

Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Allergy can occur to anybody and at anytime. Get yourself evaluated by an allergist/pulmonologist. You will require to undergo skin prick test to know if you are allergic to any particular allergen and a PFT to see if you have asthma.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query.
Wish you good health. Thanks.
