Difficulty in breathing
Hello,
I've been facing difficulty in breathing since a few months. I'm not able to take a deep breath or yawn completely. Sometimes I'm able to do so. When I lie down on my stomach there's no problem. But while standing and all I find to difficult to take a deep breath. I don't know what's wrong. There was no problem before. After I started going to gym and after that I started facing this issue.
Could someone please help?
Thankyou.
