Wheezing

Wheezing is a high-pitched, whistling sound made when you breathe out or sometimes in, caused by narrowed or obstructed airways in the lungs. It often occurs due to conditions like asthma, bronchitis, or allergies, where the airways become inflamed or swollen. This narrowing makes it harder for air to flow, producing the distinctive sound. Wheezing can be mild or severe, and may be accompanied by other symptoms like shortness of breath or coughing. If frequent or severe, it's important to seek medical advice to determine the cause and appropriate treatment.
