I'm experiencing a lot of coughing, especially at night, and it's been happening for several days now. I know I have allergic rhinitis and asthma, and I usually find relief when I use my Livolin inhaler. Sometimes, I take Montair LC if I really need it. Could you give me some guidance on what's going on or what I should do?

I've been dealing with a cough for a couple of weeks now, and it's starting to worry me. It feels really hard to breathe whenever I start coughing. Do you think there's a specific medication I should try, or is there a test I need to get done to figure out what's going on? Would appreciate any advice.
