A member asked:
Might it be asthma if when i run really hard it feels like my airway gets smaller and not as much air can get in?

Possibly: Although your symptoms can be a sign of asthma, there are other possible causes that should be evaluated by your doctor. One such entity is vocal cord dysfunction where you get the sensation that your throat is closing up.
