Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor, Asthma is itself an allergic disease due to cold or dust or pollen or grass etc. irrespective of the triggering factor. Your chest sharp feeling or pain, breathlessness are here due to asthma episodes. You can go for pulmonary function tests if not done. Treatment is mainly symptomatic which might require inhalation steroids, beta agonists, anticholinergics as MDI or rota haler as a regular treatment. To decrease the inflammation of bronchi and bronchioles, you might be given oral antihistamines with mast cell stabilizers (montelukast) and steroids (prednisolone) with nebulization and frequently steam inhalation. The best way to cure any allergy is a complete avoidance of allergen or triggering factor. Consult your pulmonologist for thoroughly examination and above treatment.
