A member asked:

Recently i have been feeling some form of breathlessness around my chest. has it anything to do with constant push ups?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hard to say: Impossible to answer this good question without a more complete history, focused cardiopulmonary exam, and tests: possibly a stress test, chest x-ray, pulse oximetry, hemoglobin, thyroid test, and basic chemistries for starters.
