Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

Your symptoms seem to be related to a bronchospasm.
Treatment of bronchospasm usually starts with inhaled medications such as Ventolin.
It is a common medications that may be used if you are having difficulty breathing or shortness of breath.
In case of pneumonia a cycle of antibiotics is also needed to treat the infection.
Both medications are taken on prescription, so it is necessary to consult a pulmonologist or your physician for further evaluation.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
