General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Difficulty in breathing in young people as you (22 years old male) should be further investigated as:
• Respiratory function test and a good physical examination to rule out asthma or other respiratory problems
• Cardiac tests: ECG, echocardiogram, stress test
• Chest x-ray

Blue inhaler would relieve troubles breathing on spot, however, I am still thinking you should determine the right diagnosis to get treated accordingly.

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

Regards,
Dr. Albana Sejdini
