You should get your self investigated with Chest X ray, lung function testing and sputum testing to find out nothings wrong in chest. Inhaled medicines(Inhalers or Nebulisations) are beneficial in some cases who have chest congestion and wheezing due to it. Hot water steam may provide some relief in symptoms
