A member asked:

I can hear myself wheezing at times. does that mean i might have asthma? thanks!

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Perhaps: Wheezing is the sound of air moving past an obstruction in your breathing tubes. Because airway narrowing in asthma is variable and reversible wheezing will be present at some times, absent at another. Your physician can use a stethoscope to listen to your breathing & determine if the sound you are hearing is really wheezing. Why not make an appointment today?
