You may be getting the flu, which is a viral infection that can affect the lungs, but your description is more like asthma than the flu. If it continues you should get a medical opinion.

Could be a touch of an upper respiratory infection or bronchitis. Both will make you feel like your chest is "full", especially if accompanied by a cough. Give it a few days and if you don't start to improve see a doctor.

Hey, sounds like you are getting what almost every floridian has right now, the flu-type cold. my husband just got over it...he had the same feeling, along with a stuffy nose and a sinus infection..hang in there and drink a lot of calcium, it helps for sure. Feel better!

Sound like you a upper respiratory virus. Try to drinks lots of fluids to keep the mucus easy to bring up and you should be just fine without a doctor. If you get worse and don't start to get better soon go to your regular doctor.

Could be nothing, so don't get worried too soon, unless you're a smoker - then stop asap!!
Yoga teaches you to breathe properly and expands your lung capacity which makes you feel wonderful. Bad breathing habits could be related to bad posture and a sluggish spine, which can compress your lungs. Get into healthy habits while you're still young, you'll be glad when you're my age!

I had it like that. It got worse quick. Ended up I have psneumonia in my Lower Left Lobe. See a doctor and get a xray to see if it is that.

Maybe the muscles are tight from excessive coughing.If you cough enough you can get very sore and tight muscles

It sounds like you might have asthma though. I have it and I experience those symptons when I'm about to have an attack. You should get that checked out.
