Most doctors will tell you babies don't get allergies but, contrary to opinion they do get allergies and, the proof is in the babies when brought in.
A babies lungs are not fully developed when they're born, some have a hard time getting started. They will show some signs of a congestion. You should keep your eye on it. Let your doctor know, he will probably give you something for this congestion but, when it's continuing and won't clear up, then it's time to look at other avenues and reasons.
I've seen babies allergic to milk, the cereal they eat, etc. Now if a doctor tells you babies cannot have allergies then why, pray tell, are there so many brands and types of cereals for babies, especially the ones that continually puke up their milk. It's due to allergies. Doctors can be contrary but, can't explain why.
Follow their orders and look at the facts, the way the baby acts when eating, how they act after eating, etc. The baby will tell you.
You may have to change their food constantly until you find out where the baby is comfortable. Keep the doctor informed and an eye on the baby. They do outgrow almost all of this in time.

Go to the ER NOW, unless you have a history and KNOW its nothing serious....but can't risk it with a baby. Asthma kills, aside form the other possible causes

It's more likely to be croup. Steam the bathroom a bit using the shower, and sit with him in the bathroom for a few minutes. Steam should loosen up the chest congestion.
