Pleaseeee

Just walked to work. Thought I’d try change things up. 15 min walk. Small localised chest pains. Then this isn’t just when exercising. A few times an hour I have to take a deep breathe in like a gasp. Why is this? It really scares me.

Hi, I get the same exact issue and it gets worse when I try to sit down. I’m pretty sure it’s exercise-induced anxiety! Anxiety’s most common physical symptoms tend to affect the lungs. Don’t worry about it too much, just know that you are not alone. If you read about exercise-induced anxiety, it’s the type of anxiety that causes one to misinterpret trouble breathing while exercising which is normal, as something dangerous when it really isn’t. It will all get better soon.

Best wishes

It might be a muscle strain, get it checked.

I’ve seen loads. Over 25 heart scans

You might have strained a chest muscle, I have done it before an had the breathing probs with it, also it could be strained neck muscles..

Get it checked by your doc just to put your mind at ease.

Not what you're looking for?
