I'm having a hard time breathing sometimes and it's kind of worrying. I just got over Covid-19. Have noticed I feel better after burping. Could there be a connection between the shortness of breath and burping? What's happening with my body?

I'm a bit worried about these sharp shooting pains and heaviness in my chest. I also get really out of breath and start coughing even with just a bit of dust or smoke around. And if I try to talk while walking, I end up breathing heavily. Do you think you could help me figure out why I'm having these breathing issues? I'm a 25-year-old woman with a young child, and I've had two C-sections.

check your hemoglobin levels, reduced hemoglobin will cause above symptoms
