Hi and welcome to HCM
Detailed Answer:
Ok,first, if you dont have breathing difficulties then this is not serious. This is commonly seen and majority of cases passes spontaneously and no medical intervention is required. Try to eat few pieces of bread with some liquid and stand or walk for 20-30 minutes. Try to repeat this few times. If this wont be helpful or breathing symptoms occur,you should visit doctor. WIsh you good health. Regards
