You are suffering from asthma and from your symptoms it seems to be poorly controlled. So consult a chest specialist immediately and follow the instructions.

it seems like lower respiratory tract infection most often its viral infection to start with and then secondary bacterial infection occurs. but frequent use of nebulizer is pointing towards quite a severe airway disease. you need to consult a pulmonologist or physician for thorough examination of your chest
