Seek care: Trouble breathing is worrisome.It sounds like either asthmatic bronchitis (a bronchial infection triggering temporary asthma)or possibly even pneumonia.Please see a doctor today.If pneumonia you may need antibiotics. If asthmatic bronchitis an inhaler should help. Most bronchial infections are viral though you may be offered antibiotics. Umcka is an herbal medicine proven effective for bronchitis.
