What Causes Shortness Of Breath Upon Bending Over?

Having shortness of breath when ever I bend over or use arms to lift. Also upper back pain at same time. Along with this is burping air. Goes away just as soon as I rest for a few minutes and does not occur otherwise. Was healthy and strong before this happened, thought it was due to fall, however xrays and mri showed no problems.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Shortness of breath while bending over, such as when putting on shoes. The condition, which cardiologists named "bendopnea" (pronounced "bend-op-nee-ah") is an easily detectable symptom that can help doctors diagnose excessive fluid retention in patients with heart failure, according to the findings. Please consult your cardiologist he will examine and treat you accordingly.

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