[|Human|] Trouble catching my breath after stairs or walking 20-25ft. Stomach feels like I ve done a lot of sit ups and tightness is causing me to walk bent over. Longer I go or further I walk worse breathing and I ve got to stop and take a deep breath and start again.
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. You are having breathlessness on exertion. This is commonly seen with heart and lung diseases. So better to consult doctor and get done ECG, 2d echo, stress test, chest x-ray and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test). If all these are normal then no need to worry about lung and heart diseases. Don't worry, you will be alright, first diagnose and then start appropriate treatment. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
