I am just curious. Years ago, I felt suffocating slightly during the summer and always wondered what that was about. I felt like I had to take in full breaths - filling my lungs to the maximum - otherwise, I felt like I had not enough oxygen. It happened for about 1 or 2 weeks, twice in my life. I'm always a little worried that it could happen again... Thanks
Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic. I can understand your concern. It could have been anxiety attacks. If you had no other symptom like cough or chest pain. If you have any of these symptoms then get chest x ray and PFT done to rule out bronchitis. Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.
