A member asked:

Can lifting a very heavy object cause shortness of breath and tingling in hands? is this something to worry about?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

If you strain and bear down very intensely you can limit diaphragm movement and cause breathlessness. Hand tingling from compression of nerves at the wrist and hands can cause the tingling. Unless you experience these symptoms on other occasions, I wouldn't expect anything serious.
