What Causes Tightness In Chest Along With Difficulty In Breathing?

Hi, why do I feel so hard to breathe that I have to take in a very deep breath and my chest feeling really tight? Sometimes when I breathe I can hear a really high pitch sound, I ve been coughing alot and having running nose and block nose recently. Walking a little distance can caused me to feel short of breath.

HI
Well come to HCM
Because of the allergic condition such breathing difficulty is likely as you have history of cold and running nose, you have not mentioned your age and gender else possibility of some dyspnea could be possible better to get done the EKG test, else this is nothing to worry, you can have "Levocetirizine and Pseudoephedrine" once in day, hope this information helps, take care.
