What causes chest tightness and shortness of breath in children?

Sometimes chest tightness and shortness of breath are just a subjective feeling, especially for some children who are usually very naughty and do a lot of exercise at a time, so they feel difficulty when breathing, or they feel that the new air taken in is not enough when breathing. This phenomenon is easy to occur in both children and adults, and generally does not affect the body. If the phenomenon of chest tightness and shortness of breath occurs for a long time, parents must pay attention.

Chest tightness and shortness of breath are respiratory diseases and are relatively common. Sometimes chest tightness and shortness of breath may just be a subjective feeling rather than a disease. When patients experience chest tightness and shortness of breath, they will feel that breathing is very difficult or feel that the air inhaled into the body is not enough. Patients with mild illness will not have any impact on the body, but if it becomes serious, it will make people feel very uncomfortable, as if there is a big stone pressing on the chest, and even more serious cases can lead to difficulty breathing.

There are generally two reasons for chest tightness and shortness of breath. The first reason is that there are problems with the body's functions, which lead to chest tightness and shortness of breath. The second reason is that chest tightness and shortness of breath are caused by cardiac neurosis. Functional chest tightness and shortness of breath usually occur in a closed environment. When the patient is in a closed environment, because the air is not circulating in the room and the patient stays in the room for too long, if he encounters some unhappy things at this time, it may cause the feeling of chest tightness and shortness of breath. At this time, the patient will also feel very tired.

Some chest tightness and shortness of breath may be functional, while some may be caused by cardiac neurosis. Parents must take their children to the hospital for examination in time. Some children have weak physical resistance and are prone to various respiratory infections, such as upper respiratory tract infections, colds or flu. These diseases can also cause chest tightness and shortness of breath in children.
