Heavy Breathing, Pain In Lungs And Throat, Ears Popping. Is It Asthma Or Any Allergy?
hey,from the last 2-3 days I have to gasp after every few breaths, i.e I have to breath hard after every few breaths. And some of the times, I also feel pain in my lungs, probably because they get tired of breathing hard. Although, its gets better when I go to sleep.Secondly, I don t know if it is connected or not, but my ears are also popping a lot. They unpop some of the time as well, but most of the time they are popped.And I have slight pain in my throat too.Could you please suggest what shall I do? Do I need to go to hospital? Is it asthma or some kind of allergy?

Hello
Ur having sore throat, chest pain, difficulty in breathing and some ear problem.
Is there any fever?
It may be due to lung infection or pleural infection.
As u don't have any wheeze and no previous history so asthma less likely.
Do a chest x-ray and pulmonary function test.
Consult a pulmonologist immediately.
