Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Breathlessness on exertion and neck pain are seen in bronchitis and heart diseases. So better to rule out these causes first.
Consul doctor and get done
1. Blood pressure monitoring, ecg and 2d echo to rule out heart diseases.
2. Clinical examination of respiratory system, PFT (Pulmonary Function Test) to rule out bronchitis and other lung related diseases.
With proper treatment, you will definitely improve.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
