This is referred to as Air Hunger - difficulty getting air in as opposed to asthma where the difficulty is getting air out. I have tried many things for this over the years. I have recently heard that Muellin and Motherwort tincture are very helpful (if you're into more alternative remedies). Breathing in a paper bag helps some people but never worked for me. Oh, and I also have a Salt Pipe which is somewhat helpful.

It actually could be asthma as some people describe it this way. I'd see a pulmonologist.

 

[hello.there]

Do you have this "labored" breathing all the time, 24 hours per day? Are there certain times when your breathing is much better, or is it bad all the time, without any relief?
