What Could Cause Difficulty In Breathing And Tiredness?

I dont have any history/or family history of heart disease or any abnormality, disease, or conditions. I am 18 years old, and dont smoke or do any kind of drugs. I workout for about 60-75 minutes a day, 4 times a week. My question/problem is this... about a week ago/for about the past week or so, i have been feeling like im not getting enough oxygen, i feel like i am unable to take deep enough breaths. I constantly try to force myself to yawn so i can feel like im getting a deep enough breath. For the past week or so i have also had a bit of troubles falling asleep/feeling tired. Im not sure if it has anything to do with this constant feeling that im getting enough air when i breath. What is causing this/whats wrong with me.

Hi,
It could be because of bronchitis (allergic or infective) or seasonal asthma etc.
You may undergo routine blood count,ESR with X- ray chest and pulmonary function test.
You might require antibiotics (quinolones or macrolides or amoxillin with clavulanic acid) with antiallergic drugs like antihistamines or mast cell stabilizers) and antiinflammatories or analgesics on as and when required basis.
You must consult your pulmonologist to get diagnosed first and then treatment.
Thanks.
