Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion you should consult doctor for him because cardiac and Pulmonary diseases cause shortness of breath.
So better to get done ecg and 2d echo to rule out heart diseases.
Get done chest x ray and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test) to rule out lung related causes.
So better to first diagnose him and than start appropriate treatment.
Hope I have solved your query.
I will be happy to help you further.
Wishing him good health.
Thanks.
