A member asked:

When i go running in the morning i get shortness of breath then headache. what is the problem ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unclear: It is, of course, normal to get short of breath when you run. If you feel that your breathing is abnormal, you should be evaluated (there are many possibilities and many tests). The headache is likely unrelated and has its own list possible causes . You should see your family doctor to get the ball rolling.
