Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I appreciate your concern . If i see such a patient in my clinic with
shortness of breath and generalized weakness , I would like to rule outy conditions like
Anaemia ,
Electrolyte imbalance like
Hyponatremia , Respiratory problem or cardiac illness .
Kindly monitor your Blood Pressure and pulse rate . Watch for any fever. Take adequate fluids . Watch for any change in urine output. Examine your feet for any
pedal edema.
In case you have shortness of breath on walking with cough or whistling sound(
wheezing) from chest, It may indicate Respiratory Disease.
In case you have shortness of breath which increases on lying supine or if there is associated
chest pain , it might indicate cardiac disease.
Meanwhile take adequate rest. Take adequate fluids and small frequent meals . Aviod lying down immediately following meals .
In case symptoms persist, Kindly contact your GP , who can do a detailed general physical examination and can arrange for you necessary investigations.
Hope It Helps.
Dr. Kavita Paul
