Why can't i i take a deep breath?

Depends: It depends on the nature. Is it painful to take a deep breath, which may indicate some sort of inflammation of the lining of the lung, called pleurisy? Or do you just not feel like you're getting enough air, which could be something entirely different? Need clarification.
