Could smoking weed causes shortness of breath?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Yes, both short term and long term use can do this. Especially if you have asthma or COPD (emphysema). Just don't do it if you get short of breath when you do it. Chronically, (no pun intended) it can cause other problems as well.
