A doctor has provided 1 answer
See a doctor: Classic signs and symptoms of asthma--intermittent shortness of breath, cough, wheezing, chest tightness, are not specific enough for you to make your own diagnosis. Other conditions--heart disease, gastroesophageal reflux disease, chronic sinusitis can cause similar symptoms. Asthma is diagnosed through history, physical exam and laboratory tests. If asthma is concerning you, see your doctor.
