HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the allergic condition then it needs to be managed in that way only, the most important is bronchial spasm if this the symptoms then it needs to be managed with bronco dilator but for that clinical examination is must till then I would suggest to try Levocetirizine with Pseudoephedrine some time it may needs other investigations too for perfect or right diagnosis hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
