[|Human|] Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ?  Please type your query here...i am a 39 year old male with copd and sleep apnea, i recently attempted sexual intercourse and felt as if something losened up in my left lung? it cause sever shortness of breath, sever coughing with nothing coming out, after i layed down and took small short breaths for about a half hour it seemed to go away. is there anything in your lungs that can cause these strange symptoms??
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Sexual intercourse is considered as heavy exertion. So you are having breathing difficulty on exertion which is subsided by taking rest. You are also having COPD. So your current symptom is mostly due to worsening of underlying COPD (lung disease).COPD causes bronchospasm. This in turn causes breathlessness. So you should start treatment for COPD with inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or albuterol) and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) (budesonide or fluticasone).Don't worry, you will be alright with all these. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
