Fever, Loss Of Appetite, Runny Nose, Breathing Difficulty While Coughing, Flu. Is It Allergy?

My son is 3 years old and has 101 fever (cross head), no appetite , very runny nose . What is concerning is his cough - it is very dry and he is almost chocking when coughing. Nothing comes out. He had this couple of months ago and we took him in and doctor said it is just a flu . A month later the same happened. It s not normal. He can t breathe while coughing and turns all red. Otherwise, he is breathing normal. Is is allergies? Sounds like he just can not cough it out what ever it is. Thank you for your answer. Irena
