Is It Normal To Experience Breathlessness And Strain In The Chest Area After A Coach Journey?

I took a coach journey about four days ago. When I got off the coach my legs were numb and tight and one painful to walk on. Since then my legs feel ok but I have been suffering with breathlessness and what feels like a heavyness and strain across my chest?

Hello,

The symptoms can be related to a muscle strain in the chest. I suggest using Tylenol to relieve the symptoms. If it continues, I suggest to do a chest X-ray for further evaluation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
