Suggest Treatment For Difficulty In Taking Deep Breaths
I am having a bit of difficulty getting full breaths - a bit of a constricted and heavy chest. It is a little worse at night. I had asthma as a child and perhaps that is it. I have never had cardiac problems but I suppose that may be it as well. I am a 68 year old male and am very active - pickleball, hiking, biking, etc. Thanks. My email is YYYY@YYYY
