If : If a patient feels short of breath, it must always be taken seriously. If a patient has a sore throat and a stuffy nose, they may feel short of breath from nasal congestion, or from an early infection in their lungs. If a patient had continued shortness of breath, fever, cough, or pain then seeking out a medical evaluation would be reasonable.
