Why is my son always panting so hard?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unable to comment: Panting could be a lung/heart/metabolic problem and the data you have submitted does not allow any clear answer.A visit to a doctor with a proper history,physical and appropriate testing would be the best thing to do to answer your question.
