Hi welcome to health care magic....

Noted cough with wheeze since 3 week.
So here you could have bronchitis or asthmatic problem ...
Do you have history of asthma ??

Your auscultation should done here to heard rhonchi....
If need decongestent given...
Steam inhalation useful...
If still need brocholdilator like theophylin given....
If it is asthmatic attack nebulization with levosalbutamol given...

Chest x ray useful for further guide toward treatment....

pulmonary function test useful for differentiating obstructive and restrictive disease ...

Take care.
