Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
If family history of asthma is present in your family, your history suggests that it is a case of bronchial asthma,
Thorough clinical examination is necessay to confirm the diagnosis.
Investigations are not of much use.
Better consult a pediatrician and get the diagnsis cofirmed and then follow his advice.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
