Humidity and hot water bath can cause shortness of breathe. This density can increase airway resistance in the body. Due to this one might find breathing difficult especially in humid climate or while showering.

Dr. Hema Suggests...

Take a URINE FOR FAT GLOBULES Test or Take a Urine Protein- Quantitative- Spot Urine Test
