Brief Answer:
Possible allergic bronchitis? Require complete assessment

Detailed Answer:
Hello, Madam

I can certainly understand your concern.

The symptoms in your case are related to Chronic allergic bronchitis.

This can cause symptoms of both allergy as well as expectorant cough.

It's important to get a CT scan of the chest to rule out connective tissue disorder.

Sputum exam is also helpful.

These tests will help to guide accurate therapy.

Post your further queries if any.
