📖What is Breathlessness on Exertion?
Breathlessness on exertion is difficulty breathing or a feeling of being unable to get enough air that occurs during physical activity but improves with rest. It often develops gradually and may signal reduced heart or lung capacity, especially if it occurs with activities that were previously easy to perform. It is distinct from breathlessness at rest, which is generally more concerning.
