What Causes Shortness Of Breath?
Currently, It is uncomfortable to take a full breathe. If I were to describe the feeling, It kinda feels like my heart is bruised -when i try and take a full breathe, it isn t the most pleasant feeling. It s not all the time when it happens- only occasionally when I am laying on my back. For several months now

Hi,
I would like to tell you that breathing difficulties can be because of lung or heart pathology if you are healthy otherwise.
Kindly get an ECG, echocardiography and an X-ray chest done and consult a physician with reports for further treatment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhanu Partap,
Cardiologist
