About UsBreathing Problems FAQs
Can anxiety or stress cause breathing issues?
Yes, anxiety and stress can lead to shortness of breath or hyperventilation. However, it's crucial to rule out medical conditions as the cause. You should consult Dr. Fieldsmith for an accurate diagnosis.
Can exercise improve my breathing issues?
Exercise can indeed improve lung function and overall respiratory health. Activities like cardio workouts or aerobic exercises can increase lung capacity and stamina, making it easier to breathe. However, it's crucial to consult a healthcare provider before beginning a new exercise routine, especially if you have chronic breathing issues.
Is it normal for breathing issues to worsen at night?
Yes, some respiratory conditions like asthma can worsen at night due to factors such as cooler air or exposure to allergens in bedding. This phenomenon is known as "nocturnal asthma." If you notice breathing issues intensifying at night, consult Rockwall Rapid Care for proper diagnosis and treatment.
