[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Air around heart is known as pneumomediastinum. And this can cause similar symptoms like she is having. This is serious condition. Patient needs CT thorax for confirmation of this. Treatment lies in 1. Continuous oxygen inhalation. 2. Oral bronchodilator. 3. Inhaled bronchodilators and inhaled corticosteroid. 4. Antibiotic to prevent infection. 5. Bed rest with minimal mobilization. So In my opinion, you should consult another doctor and discuss all these. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your wife. Thanks.
