Hello, Welcome to icliniq. As you have mentioned, you are worried about your symptoms. Considering your history and previous symptoms, you may be having asthma as well as pharyngitis, at present. I would still advise you some investigations to confirm the diagnosis. And, if you are suffering from asthma, I would have prescribed you inhalational medication, because they are the best possible medication available for the treatment of Asthma. Also, I would like to know,if there are any factors resulting in increase in your symptoms. I hope this helps. Take Care. X-ray chest PA view, Spirometry with bronchodilator reversibility testing.
