Congestion in chest, shortness of breath
Sometimes I have shortness of breath, it feels very heavy to breath as if there is some load on my chest. Sometimes when I try to breath too hard, i could feel pain in my chest, and the pain also occurs just on the back side of my chest also. The frequency is once or twice a month and remains for 3-4 days. Anxiety also causes me this problem
