[|Human|] Hi I have had problems with chest infections for the last few years. I m also getting pain in my lungs when I sleep and this causes me to wake. This comes and goes, but it dose seem to last a while, I ve had the pain in my lungs before when walking it takes my breath away in the same way it dose when I m lying down?
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. Recurrent chest infection can cause bronchitis. And untreated bronchitis can cause chest pain. So better to consult pulmonologist and get done1. Chest x ray2. PUT (pulmonary function test)Chest x-ray is needed to rule out lung infection.PFT is needed to diagnose bronchitis. It will also tell you about severity of the disease. And treatment is based on severity only. So better to first diagnose your problem and then start appropriate treatment.Don't worry, you will be alright.
