I have a haviness in my chest that comes and goes for about 4 days now with shortness of breath. I went to the er to be checked. My blood work and xrays came back normal. No blood clots were found which I was afraid of at first because of the sharp pains that I ve been experiencing in my legs which I know could be a possible sign of DVT. So just today I started feeling a warm sensation in my chest as well. What is causing this?
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. By your history and description, possibility of bronchitis is high in your case. So better to get done PFT (Pulmonary Function Test) for the diagnosis of bronchitis. It will also tell you about severity of the disease. And treatment of bronchitis is based on severity only. You may need inhaled bronchodilators, inhaled corticosteroid and antihistamine Chat Doctor.  So first diagnose yourself and then start appropriate treatment. Wish you good health. Thanks.
