Good evening.. By the history you are giving it looks more likely to be asthma with an exacerbation(worsening) secondary to an infection. Would suggest you to take Levolin on an sos basis. It needs a maintained centre therapy which you are not on currently. Please let me know the correct name of the inhaler you are on
