Breathing issues in polluted air

I experience throat irritation, mild breathing difficulty, and occasional chest tightness in highly polluted environments like Delhi, especially during poor air quality days. These symptoms improve significantly in cleaner air conditions. This pattern has been consistent over time, though I have not been formally diagnosed with a chronic condition. I am planning a work-related relocation and wanted to understand whether continued exposure to high pollution levels could worsen these symptoms long term. Would it be medically advisable to consider relocating to a city with better air quality? Also, please suggest any precautions, tests, or treatment options I should consider.
