A member asked:
Does large breasted woman may suffer a shortness of breath?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very possible: Depending on weight of the large breasts, a degree of restriction of the lungs movement occurs. Also, if self-conscious, limiting athletic activity and walking speed make you unfit and short of breath when you pick up the pace on activity. Back pain ; spasms occur due to awkward posture. Need to see your doc for evaluation, supervised physical therapy ; advise on breast reduction if appropriate.
