What Causes Chest Pain While Having Bronchitis?

I am getting bronchitis (usually without cold symptoms) frequently which doctors say it s caused by asthma and inflammation of my lungs. I get chest pains on regular basis. They have done an ekg and thank god it has been normal. My worry is that my hair is continuously falling out more than normal. It falls out in clumps and It feels lighter and I can see light (not bald) spots especially in front. I am not sure if all of this is related or what it could be. What tests should I be asking doctors to do? They are taking my asthma and bronchitis attacks as nothing major.

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description,you must consider taking some antioxidants in your diet or by prescription. If you smoke, or drink alcohol heavily, you must discontinue right away. Hair loss is a sign of generalized weakness and you must take special care of your diet in this time. If you have been an asthmatic, you must start breathing exercises, yoga, prayanam and life style modifications.
Your diet modification is primarily important to prevent hair loss.
Chest pain in bronchitis is due to inflammation of the bronchi, and the lung tissue.

Take care,
Regards
