Shortness of breathe

2017-02-05 14:13:01
Hello sir..recently i started experiencing shortness of breathe with some headache.It all started when i inhaled carbon monoxide gas in my room when we were burning some fire.when i woke up next day my head was spinning along with loss of consciousness,a deep sad and fear feeling..it happened 10-11 days ago but today also i still feel shortness of breathe..forgetting to breathe..i notice myself holding my breath..is all this something to do with that carbon monoxide poisoning or is it something else like asthma or some other lung related problem..do i need to visit to a doc for a checkup? please help me sir

Carbon monoxide can cause shortness of breath. But it won't last for so many days. If u are feeling dizzy and having difficulty breathing better show to a chest physician nearby.
