Allergies or cold?

Hi, I'm new. I was diagnosed with Asthma when I was a child but as I got older I was able to stop using medication everyday and not have it bother me much unless I was sick. In the last couple years though it has seemed to get a lot worse. I was recently at work cleaning and dusting and ever since I have been very congested and sick. At first it was just in my face but now I'm having difficulties with my Asthma. Is it possible I just have a cold that has brought out symptoms or could this all be related to an Asthma allergy? Thank you for any feedback!

So sorry no one replied. I just read your article. I honestly believe the older we get our bodies clicks back to our younger years. I to had asthma as a child and now my allgeries have shown their ugly head.

I do believe with all the new flowers ,tress ,etc they have invented , our bodies have not built up an ammunie system for them. Just my input.

I wish you a speedy healing and wearing a mask is sometimes helpful just like the LongRanger an old cowboy movie.
