Need more info: Have you been diagnosed with some respiratory tract inherited deficiency? Do you smoke? Do you have allergies? Many other issues. Tracheitis is uncommon, and to have had repeated episodes suggests you need a more thorough evaluation. Yes, you may have had a steroid injection, but only the doctor knows for certain.
