Hi I am Mrinal From India. I have a strange itchy feeling inside my chest since 6days. First i thought it to be problem related to gas so I had gas tablets and heartburn tablets . Later I realized it isnt heartburn as there is no burn but a constant itchy sensation inside. I never had drugs and m really tensed. Never had any diseases too.
Hi! Thank you for sharing that with me!
Hello,
I just wanted to share that my allergist always asks me if I am smelling smoke when I have a sinus infection. For some reason, many people do smell smoke with sinus infections.
Hi! I just read your post because I was wondering if there were other people like me that have a warning signal before a full blown asthma attack. I get an itch, deep inside my right lung, as well as the right side of my waist. It took me a few times to make the connection and now when I feel the itch, even if I don't have a cough yet, I puff on the my inhaler and it prevents the attack. I also have another warning signal which I'm wondering if others have: before a sinus infection presents itself, I perceive the smell of cigarette smoke in my nose even though I can't smell a thing. I guess we're lucky we get these warnings and others don't. The doctors I've mentioned it to have been surprised and haven't heard of that before, even my pulmonologist!
Hi there. How you feeling now? Wnated to ask you if you were asthmatic? I don't know if it has anything to do with asthma but i have asthma too.
me too!!!! i recently came down with what I thought was a cold and experienced extremely bad symptoms (coughing, wheezing, itchy, watery eyes, congestion) the whole bit! This was probably the worst "cold/flu" virus that I have had in my lifetime. I'm 32. Turns out about a week and a half later - I started to get twitching in my left eye and the muscles in the left side of my face started to weaken. During this time I also experience itchiness in my left ear, back roof of my mouth/throat. I consequently got a perforated inner ear infection. One morning a few days later I woke up with my equilibirum completely out of whack! I literally could not stand up on my 2 feet. I went to ER for the 2nd time and they diagnosed me with vertigo & like-symptoms of a mild case of bell's palsy (the weakness on my left side). Turns out the virus was attacking my nervous system as opposed to my respiratory system even though I was having cold/flu-like symptoms. Anyway the reason why i am saying all this is to say that after this bout, I started to get the itchiness in my lungs/chest/upper back. This happened over 2 mnths ago and I've pretty much recovered from every thing else BUT the tightness/wheezing in my chest and the itchy feeling. This has consistenly persisted over the last 3 months and I've been freaked out by it too, as I have never experienced anything like it. Nothing I've tried has worked to make it go away.
