Do i have or am i developing Asthma or Bronchitis?

I am a very healthy 15 year old boy strong fast and i play sprots and just recently i have been coughing alot and i noticed it was right after i got done exercising and or with my practices and games.

I mean both my parents smoke and so do there friends and i breathe in a bunch of the second hand smoke. i have been breathing this stuff in ever since i was like 5 or 6.

I was just wondering if this was some kinda of asthma that i might be contracting or developing or something else. please answer my question please and thank you.

Bsmsl has great advice, see a doctor. No one on this site can tell you for sure what you have. You need to physically be checked out.

Your explanation is certainly plausible. but there are a lot of other possible explanations as well.  You should have this checked out by your doctor.  Exercis induced asthma would be the most likely problem, but the others need to be ruled out.

Feel better and take care of yourself.
