Hi.. I understand your problems. Do you get frequent cough? Was there a wheezing sound when we’re breathless? Your breathing difficulty could be mostly due to effect of smoking. Kindly refrain from smoking. Do some breathing exercises. If still having troubles, consult a Pulmonologist for evaluation.
