A member asked:
Why do i take deep breaths while eating.sometimes can't wear tight clothing aroung chest and feel better after loosening them.?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bloating: When you eat your stomach expands and pushes up the diaphragm and you feel like you can't take a deep breath. You loosen your clothes then the stomach can expand and drops down the abdomen and you get relief.
