A member asked:
Just went to e.r for shorth breath and chest pain x-ray cheked out good i'm still a liltle short breath not as much ,can it be bronchitis what i have?

Depends: Shortness of breath and chest pain in a 22 year old is worrisome. If you have a cough with increased sputum production, I would say yes to bronchitis. However, if you have no cough and no sputum it could be something else, including anxiety. You would need further evaluation if your symptoms persist.
