Asthma symptoms or just being out of breath while jogging? (Lungs hurt, chest tightened, coughing).?

Like it sounds, exercise-induced asthma is asthma that is triggered by vigorous or prolonged exercise or physical exertion.

I hate to disagree with cute girl, but asthma is a ventilation issue, not an oxygenation issue. A dry climate may help. Also, I'd stay away from highly populated areas with alot of air pollution, if possible.\n I would reccommend seeing an asthma specialist if you have not done so. There are many factors that affect asthma patients, so there is no "right" answer that fits everyone.

try taking some deep breaths after and during your jogging. side aches can be caused from not breathing correctly.

Yikes, quick ask a doctor!  Sorry, but tightness in the chest is a serious symptom so don't look for an amateur explanation.

No....your breathing rate doesn't jump that fast...and if you've been running for a while, you'll be exhaling as fast as you inhale....

Try swimming. Devolping your lungs and cardiovascular system can reduce the symptoms of asthma. Read the attached article from mydr.au.com\n\nCAN SWIMMING HELP MY ASTHMA?\nHaving asthma doesn’t mean you should avoid exercise. A healthy lifestyle and keeping fit are important factors in managing your asthma effectively. If you are fit, you could have fewer asthma attacks.\n\nWhy is swimming a good exercise for people with asthma?\nSwimming helps people with asthma develop lung capacity and good breathing practices.\n\nSwimming is a great exercise for people with asthma as you breathe in warm, moist air rather than the cold, dry air that can lead to asthma symptoms.

when i used to work out at the gym using weights i started getting a similar sort of pain and went to see my doctor as i thought it was my heart, he told me i had torn a muscle in my left armpit and gave me tablets to fix it, but i seriously used to think i was having a heart attack as the pain also shot down my left arm. It could also be severe wind  i know it sounds stupid but wind can travel anywhere in the body. But i would get him to your doctors to be safe. good luck.

you could have exercise induced asthma. Assuming you've been the doctor and tested and this isn't it.. then the answer may be simple...\n\nyou don't run enough sprints.\n\nmarathon runners can't sprint well typically. Most sprinters can't run a marathon.\n\nYour cardio capacity is specific to the type of exercise you do.\n\nLSD - long slow distance - training is good to establish a base of basic fitness but once you start trying to do "speed work" and sprints of any kind (rowing, running, etc.) you'll find that you get winded much faster.\n\nThis is why a lot of trainers and coaches today don't recommend that you start with LSD training if you want to get fast and develop a stronger VO2 max (basic measure of lung capacity).\n\nYou could go to the doctor's and get your lung capacity tested. this is certainly a safe and smart thing to do. But after that you need to start embracing intervals...\n\nIntervals are where you alternate running fast and then slowing down. Basically, you are doing sprints and then slowing down to recover and then repeating this over and over.\n\nFor example\n\nrun 30 secs\njog/walk for 1 min\nrun 30 secs\njog/walk 1 min\n\nrepeat for a total intervals.\n\nyes, you aren't "exercising" much here. BUT.. this has been scientifically proven to increase VO2 Max, cardio, and overall strength-endurance. See studies by Tabata and on interval training.\n\nGood luck

I got that before too, a couple of times already. The moment i had it i thought i'm getting a heart attack but mine always go away after a day. I think i kinda pulled the muscles while sleeping. If your lung still hurts after a day or two i suggest u see a doctor. Take care!

If you have tightness in your chest as you breathe, you may have asthma and/or allergies compromising your lung capacity.  There are treatments for that but one of the best ones is to expand your natural lung capacity with gradual-paced, regular cardiovascular exercise, going slowly until you can push yourself harder...\n\nIf it isn't a breathing issue, you may want to ask about synecope (pronounced sin-EH-coh-pee).  This is what happens when your blood pressure is in the low end of the normal range, and changes in your bodily posture end up causing sudden drops in upper-body blood pressure (do you get dizzy if you have to get up *straight* to your feet in the morning from your bed?  That is the classic sign of it.).

I don't think it asthma, I think it is a build up of co2 (carbon dioxide) the reason is, you blood is pumping faster while you exert energy, if your breathing rate is not in tune with your heart rate, then your capularies(in your lungs) will absorb the CO2 that is residual in your lungs from your last exhale, there fore building up CO2 levels in your blood. Breath deeper and slower, and decrease your heart rate to fix this. You will be in no immediate danger unless you continue to run for an extended period of time. Its a similar effect from scuba diving.

Running is good for you all around. You have to breath correctly while you run. If your not used to running I would start off jogging, or even a brisk walk. Breath in through your nose and out through your mouth.  Your lungs will do better over time. When I started running my chest would hurt more than my body.  It just took some time. I got better.

I once had something close to your injury.  It hurt to breathe, but I was able to still workout.  Just like you I could only inhale so much air before it hurt.  My chiropractor told me my "rib was out."  I let him adjust me, and it was instantly better.  If you don't believe in chiropractors, then I would definitely follow up with my doctor.  Your lungs need to expand, so breath as much as you can!  I think it is fine to use your arm on that side of your body, but if possible keep the chest wrap on.  Unfortunately for the ribs and surrounding muscles, you have to wait for them to heal.  If your pain is still severe go back to the doctor and make him/her give you something stronger for the pain, and maybe even suggest an MRI???

look i'm 18 years old and i've had chest pain since i was like 7 or 8 anyway i know how you feel not knowing what's wrong. i've been told it was caused by lifting stuff i'd strained/streched some muscles in my chest, i slept wrong, that they're panic attacks, it was caused by coughing due to a cold, that i had plorisy (or however you spell it), no one to this day can tell me what's wrong. i've been through the blood work, ekg's, ect. and they can't find anything wrong. i think it because when they schedule these things, during the time of having them done i'm not having the pain, so i guess that's why the basiclly tell me that it's all in my head. but hey i'm here for ya. it might take a while but in time they'll find out it's not all in out heads. in the mean time if you need omeone to talk to that understands the pain e-mail me at wolfspan16@yahoo.com . good luck though i know how painful they can be.
