A member asked:
My lung feels really heavy for some reason. is this normal? will it go away?

Not normal: The sensation is not normal. More details are needed to determine its onset, triggers, contributing and relieving factors, background medical history. X-rays and lung function testing are also needed. Only then can you determine the chances that it will go away.
