Asthamatic. What Is The Treatment For Swollen Throat, Chest And Back Pain?
Hello! I was diagnosed with very severe sleep apnea and I have asthma (severe) I have been having pain both in the middle of my chest and the middle of my back and at times I feel like my throat is swollen and it is quite difficult for me to breathe and sleep. How do I seek help and find a doctor that will help me?

Was your sleep apnea diagnosed on polysomnography if so what is our AHI index.Have you been prescribed home CPAP ventilation.Get your ENT check up for any problem in your tonsils or adenoids or any other obstruction like polyps.You have also not specified the treatment you are taking for asthama.Once your sleep apnea gets proper treatment then your other symptoms would get releived.
