[|Human|] im 14 and i havent been able to take deep breaths or breath right for a while now. I have no alergies. When i do breath i feel like my lungs are constricted, my dad is a smoker and when i go to his house i kinda feel it getting worse but when i come back from being there i feel like i can breath a little better. I blamed it on the winter weather but now its getting into spring and still cant breath! I have to work and try alot to take that big deep breath we always take sometimes, i also cough alot and im not sick. Though i did have strep a month back. Whats wrong with me, im very worried about what might be wrong because my parents med insurence is fighting about who should take care of my older sister and me and when i brought up i could breath right to my mom she didnt say anything. I finally asked my great aunt to take me to the doctor but i dont know when she will or if she will.
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. You are exposed to secondary hand smoke via your father. So we should first rule out asthma and bronchitis in your case. So better to consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test).PFT will not only diagnose disease, but it will also tell you about severity of the disease and treatment is based on severity only. You may need inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or albuterol) and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) (budesonide or fluticasone).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.
