What Causes Chest Discomfort And Difficulty To Breath During Yoga Session?

hello. I am a 38 year old female with no history or heart problems. I teach PE. At 8:00 am I started teaching yoga and notice discomfort in my chest. It became worse with inverted poses. It has been uncomfortable throughout the day and now is primarily located on the left side under my clavical. It is difficult to breathe deeply and has worsened in the last hour and is made worse with exertion.

Hi,
Having severe chest pain, discomfort, difficulty in breathing requires urgent attention to rule out any cardiac ailment.
There are all risks of having coronary insufficiency and need urgent EKG and cardiac enzyme test.
Go to ER and get examined as soon as possible.
Meanwhile take complete rest.
Ok and take care.
