coughing

Avatar f tn Yesterday I noticed my throat was a little mucousy and I was coughing a little, then later that night I got a really bad cough and when I would try to breath like normal it feels like there's a scratch in my throat that makes me cough so I can only breath shallow without coughing. I also got coughing so hard I coughed up/vommited mucous 3 times and it was very thick. When I start coughing it's hard to stop and I feel like i can't breath.
Avatar f tn im suffering from back pain now for 3 weeks already. when i cough my upper back is aching and also when i take a deep breath. i don't cough really hard, i only cough when i take deep breath and that also my upper back ache. does my back pain is related with the coughing? do i need to go to my doctor already? my back pain is getting worst especially when i try to lift heavy things. does this mean there's something wrong with my lungs? do i need to have an x-ray?
Avatar f tn m concerned because I have noticed that I tend to cough more these days. When I take in a deep breath thru my mouth--it triggers a dry cough. If I take in a deep breath thru my nose--then there is no trigger to cough. It's just breathing via my mouth that does it--mainly on deep breaths. Sometimes, I'll just cough periodically though through-out the day due to a sense of tickle in my chest/throat area that kinda forces me to cough.
Avatar f tn Sounds like what my choir director has. I'd rest your voice a couple days and see what happens. However, the inability to take a deep breath without coughing concerns me. If you can't take a deep breath, you're most likely taking shallow breaths which can lead to something much more serious. I'd go to the doctor and ask for something to help with the cough.
Avatar m tn some times you can pull something in side and make you sore for a few days. even hurts to take a deep breath. I have had this problem. doesn't last very long.
20293666 tn?1494392823 I have also been having difficultly taking in a deep breath and feel out of breath if I walk up steps. Other than the coughing and shortness of breath I have no other symptoms. No sore throat and I have never coughed up any mucus or blood. Some history: I am 48 years of age. I was always around second hand smoke as a child. As a teen I was a smoker and smoked for about 10 years less than a half a pack a day. I haven’t smoked in over 20 years.
Avatar f tn I find it hard taking a deep breath. This happens only when I become conscious of it. Besides that my breathing is normal. And it happens only when I become conscious of it. Like only when I decide to take a deep breath the the struggle begins.
Avatar f tn Also, try what is called a huff cough. Take a deep breath in and hold it for a few seconds then breath out a little bit then breath out really quickly while saying HUFF then continue breathing out normally for a few seconds then say HUFF again (helps to promote coughing) and should clear your lungs a bit more. good luck, but do go a see a physician.

Avatar f tn I got over the bouts of coughing and not being able to breathe however now I get palpitations sometimes and the need for a deep breath most of the time. I am coming into the busy exam period and I am stressed however it started well before the exams so I don't think it is stress related. I feel tired most of the time and when I had a peak flow test it was 360 but it should be around 480. I'm quite worried and need to know if it is serious. Please help!!
1682264 tn?1305027291 Chest pain is the most common symptom of pleurisy which is usually worse when taking a deep breath. Other symptoms include a cough, shortness of breath and sometimes fever. Laying on the side that is painful often eases some of the pain. Pleurisy is an inflammation of pleura sac within your chest cavity where your lungs are contained. I have no idea if you have pleurisy or any of the mentioned conditions...but your PCP will be able to diagnosis you.
Avatar f tn I have this tightness in my chest i kno its mucus but i dont have a cough or cold it hurts when i try to take a deep breath ive never had chest congestion before im not coughing up blood or anything like that. ive been using my asthma pump because when i was younger i had trouble with asthma it helps clearing my airways so i can breath easier but it comes back after awhile. Help?
956150 tn?1248275215 When my panic attacks come on, I have trouble take 'full' deep breaths. It can last for hours when this happens and it is so hard to feel good when you feel like you aren't getting enough air. I've had this condition for many, many years, but for several, it was under control....NOW poof, it is back in full force and effect. I have been on Prozac for years (now slowing switching to Zoloft), Klonopin (now switching slowly to Valium), and Buspar.
Avatar n tn Hello everyone, I been having a problem,every morning I wake up and I cant breath until I take my puffer which loosens up phlegm deep inside me and I cough it up. The weird part about it is the phlegm is like strands of crystal clear gel or balls. Then as I start to get my breathing back it's almost turns to a thin liquid I cough up .After about an hour I can breath fine again and I may only take my puffer once again the whole day. Any ideas?
Avatar f tn t know how, instead I get throat gurgles. I am also expiriencing difficulty it taking a deep breath. I seem to be clearing my throat and coughing more than usual. What could this be? Asthma? thyroid? I'm an 18 year old female. No stress or anxiety except for these feelings.
1218873 tn?1300091216 Hi everyone, I haven't posted for a long time, I tried posting this on the respiratory disorders forum but then noticed it does not seem to be that active, I am hoping someone can help me. I suffer from asthma and sleep apnea along with undiagnosed neurological problems I take Pregabablin 600mg a day, Tiznadine 8mg a day, 20mg fluoxetine, 10mg nortriptilyne. I take symbicort & ventolin for asthma. I use a CPAP machine at night. But I have a problem that is really annoying me.
Avatar m tn s just that when I take a deep breath or a regular full breath I begin to cough and it seems to put pressure on temples. I suppose the other symptom would be this feeling of exhaustion...it also feels like there is a slight itch down in my thought and when I move around a lot my stomach gruels like as if i where hungry but I feel full. thanks Melissa for anything else you can suggest.
Avatar m tn Hi, i am a teenager and i have a quite serious problem. I have a shortness of breath, it seems like there is something pushing my chest slightly. I can't take a deep breath. Sometimes, it seems like I can't breath at all. When that happens, i have a tingling sensation in my hands and chest. A few days before, the area around my eyes is a bit uncomfortable and a bit nausea. Then two days later, I had a sudden short of breath and i was admitted to hospital.
187666 tn?1331173345 Yeah, I've noticed this too! Often when I take a deep breath, I'll feel my heartbeat for a few seconds and it'll be really slow, and then speed up, and then I won't feel it anymore. It's weird: I think I'm just really sensitive to changes in my heartbeat because I worry so much about them. I was thinking that it's because deep breaths cause our bodies to relax, and our heart rates are slower when we're relaxed.
1331784 tn?1275345314 take a deep breath until you reach 4 seconds and then hold for 3 seconds and then slowly let out for 3 or 4 seconds and keep doing it until you notice you are calm....
Avatar m tn sometimes i need to take deep breath continuesly, but it wont give me satisfaction. something uncomfortable while taking deep breath. is it necessary to take medical check up or it can overcome by any breathing excersises?. quickly i will get nurveousness if i get call from unknow or if i adress group of people. please suggest me how can i feel relaxation.
Avatar m tn Sometimes when taking a deep breath our hearts have a tendency to 'slow down'. When our BP is up from activity, or midst other outside stimuli, it does mimic a PVC because the heart is actually slowing on the next beat, which sometimes feels like a more forceful one. I get these all the time. PVCs, the ones that come out of the blue, or when then come on at 5+ more in a row that scare the dog poop out of me. Sometimes I'll get a 5 in a row, normal beat, then another 5 in a row.
Avatar m tn Hi please I need help I have been coughing for like 2 weeks no fever just like tickle in my troath, I start feeling like a weird sound in my right lung every time I take deep breath, I went to the doctor and he said It was bronchitis I started an azithromycin cycle 6 tablets , I finished taking it 2 days ago ... I still coughing and still felling that weird sensation in my back every time I take a deep breath , what can this be, how long this can last?
Avatar n tn It has not ever been severe, but has fluctuated from almost not there to mild, and again only when taking a deep breath. No other symptoms. Could I have strained my chest muscles? If so, how long do I give to heal. I wonder if lifting my four year old may slow the healing, if in fact that is the problem.
