Question
Hello doctor,
At night, I often have a heavy chest, shortness of breath, sometimes a slight pain in the left chest, shallow breathing. These symptoms have only appeared for about a week. Ask your doctor to advise you that heaviness in the chest, shortness of breath, and shallow breathing are symptoms of what disease? I thank you doctor.

Hello,
With the question "Heavy chest, shortness of breath, shallow breathing are symptoms of what disease?" , the doctor would like to answer as follows:
With the symptoms you mentioned are usually not specific for any cardiovascular disease. You may have a slight "anxiety disorder" and this is not a physical heart disease. However, if your symptoms persist, affecting your life, activities, study, and work, you should visit a hospital specializing in Cardiology for treatment. The test excludes physical diseases, from which the doctor will prescribe the appropriate treatment.
If you still have questions about chest heaviness, difficulty breathing, you can go to a hospital under Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. I wish you a lot of health.
Best regards!
