Shortness of breath, also known as dyspnoea, can be a warning sign of an underlying health problem. Dyspnoea can happen as a result of overexertion, spending time at high altitude, or as a symptom of a range of conditions. The onset of dyspnoea should not be ignored and is reason to seek medical attention.
If shortness of breath starts suddenly, it is called an acute case of acute dyspnoea. It typically indicates acute and severe conditions that may be life-threatening.
Chronic dyspnoea has been defined as shortness of breath lasting longer than a month and usually has a different set of causes from acute dyspnoea.
