Patient's question:
Often feel palpitations, chest tightness, and think it's like having difficulty breathing, especially when sleeping. Is it possible that I have heart disease?Doctor's answer:
Hello, this symptom is very common in pregnant women, especially in the later stages of pregnancy. The movement of the diaphragm is affected by the enlarged uterus, and pregnant women need to increase the depth of each breath to ensure the baby gets enough oxygen. Poor ventilation and insufficient oxygen can often make one feel short of breath. It is recommended to reduce physical activity, maintain a positive mood, and keep the indoor air fresh. This can help alleviate your chest tightness and breathing difficulties.
