Excessive need to yawn/take deep breaths
I have been experiencing the need to yawn or take deep breaths very frequently, many a times not being able to satisfy the yawns. When I experience this, it continues for few days and automatically goes away. I also have slight pain in my chest at different areas when this happens. When I first had this, I had it continuously for a couple of months. Now, it happens only for 4-5 days and then goes away automatically. I don't have breathing problems or any other issues when this happens, except for a constant irritation
of not being able to satisfy the yawns. Should I be worried? Whom should I consult for a further diagnosis?
