What Causes Trouble In Taking Deep Breath?

I feel like I am not completing a deep breath although I know the air is getting to my lungs. I had a doctor tell me when I was 12 that I was a hypocondriac and I am now 43 but every winter i seem to still have trouble taking a deep breath. I need to yawn to try and feel like it is completed. If I can preoccupy myself it doesn t happen as my mind is not thinking of it.

Hi,

Breathlessness can have many a reason:
- Asthma, seems to be your case as your have seasonal; problems as you have mentioned.
- Allergic phenomenon.
- Psychological overlay in itself can cause such incidences or can enhance the existing problem.
Hence I would advise you the following:
- Consult a Doctor for proper clinical examination, particularly auscultation.
- X-ray of chest.
- Investigations of blood.
All these will give a proper clinical diagnosis and thus allow a proper management.
- Avoid the foods, beverages, factors, stress and anxiety that instigate or enhance the problem.
- Medicines to be taken as advised on prescription.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. T. Chandrakant, ENT & General Surgeon
