What Causes Cough Along With Chest Pressure And Shortness Of Breath?
I have had a non-productive cough for past 2 days with chest tightness, no wheezing. No fever or congestion. I do have allergies and take zyrtec and flonase daily. No asthma history. I have been pulling weeds in the yard. It feels like I am not getting a full breath, like a reactive airway disease or asthma

Hello,
A cough with shortness of breath may be due viral infection or occupational allergy. Avoid allergen, use water vapour inhalation and salt water gargling thrice a day for five days.
Use tablet Monterleukast and Levocetirizine once a day for five days. If symptoms not improved, please consult your doctor, he/she will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
