Hi there.

Can you provide more specifics?

Difficulty of breathing can have a lot of causes, from problems with the lungs, heart, respiratory muscles, brain, metabolic disturbances, hemoglobin levels, etc.

The most common cause of such is lung infections as well as hypersensitive airways such as that of asthma.

Regards.
