[|Human|] My chest burns and im having difficulty breathing when I inhale it hurts just below my nipple, my shoulder blade, and the lowest part of my left lung. I dont feel like im getting enough air. I feel as though I am drowning but I am not having an asthma attack. I quit smoking 2weeks and a day ago. I do have asthma and I suffer from migranes. Do you have any idea whats wrong with me? Josh
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. In my opinion, we should rule out bronchitis in your case. Bronchitis is inflammation of airways. So it causes burning chest pain and breathing difficulty. It is common in smokers. So better to consult pulmonologist and get done 1. Clinical examination of respiratory system 2. PUT (pulmonary function test). PFT is must for the diagnosis of bronchitis. It will also tell you about severity of the disease. And treatment is based on severity only. You will need inhaled treatment in the form of inhaled bronchodilator (formoterol or albuterol) and inhaled corticosteroids (budesonide or fluticasone). Don't worry, you will be alright with all these. First diagnose yourself and then start appropriate treatment. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
