Allergic reactions may cause stridor and wheezing. Post nasal drip may be controlled with nasal saline. Avoid common allergens such as dust, mold, pet dander. Discuss whether an antihistamine and allergy testing is indicated, if the viral symptoms do not improve. Please watch for shortness of breath and respiratory distress. If this occurs, a COVID 19 test, Emergency Department. Please follow up.
