What Causes Pressure In Chest While Deep Breathing?

Earlier this morning, whenever i would breathe in it felt like someone was pushing their hand down on my chest, right under my neck (like i was congested). It feels better now but it feels different to swallow. My throat does not hurt but it feels like i have a sinus thing. I am a college student and have biology lab with a full day of classes... i wont be able to do that with a sinus cold. anything i can do or take to help me out tomorrow?

Hello,

Pressure in the chest is secondary to sinus congestion with anxiety manifestation.
Best relief with deep breathing exercises, tincture Benzoin vapor inhalation.
Decongestant medications available off the counter basis.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
