What Causes Pressure In Throat While Jogging?

I have mild exercise-induced asthma. I sometimes get a pressure in my right side of my throat when I jog, and then when I walk it goes away. It feels like a mini balloon in one side of my throat going up and down telling me when to slow down. My legs can still go on, but my oxygen levels feel low, and I will start yawning. More concerned about the throat pressure...any ideas what is causing this?

Hello
Thank you for trusting HCM

Dear are you obese?? Are you snore at night?? While running air passed forcibly through wind pipe cause some pressure feeling it is normal but if you have obstructive sleep apnea, and tonsillitis or Adenoid hypertrophy or macroglossia or turbinate hypertrophy may cause partial obstruction lead to increased pressure in mouth. Some times allergen can cause irritation of mucosa due to allergy may cause edema and partial obstruction may cause your symptoms. You already have exercise induced astma it may be trigger of your symptoms. Use tab levocegrizine and Moterleukast 1-2 hour before jogging. You can use inhalor like forocort 200before jogging. Avoid cold environments while jogging. Use mask if you feel allergy to pollution or pollen. Still symptoms persist please consult your doctor.
