Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
You need to consult a pulmonologist (lungs specialist) and get clinically evaluated for breathing difficulties. He may perform investigations like spiromentry and chest X ray to see the lung capacity and any structural abnormalities.
Asthma symptoms, which include coughing, wheezing, and chest tightness, are common in an asthma attack. Sometimes asthma is called bronchial asthma or reactive airway disease. Asthma can be controlled with proper treatment with steroids, bronchodilators and immunosupressants.
Hope this helps
