### input:
I am a very healthy, active 49 year old woman. I have been exercising and doing many sports (swim, cycle, weight lift) since I was a teenager and have never stopped nor slowed down. I have low blood pressure, never smoked and I drink wine occassionally with dinner.  Last week I developed a high fever with my body feeling extremely cold - it took hot tea, layers of clothes and a wool blanket to feel somewhat warm again.  The strange thing was that my chest, just under the breasts, felt very tight - like someone had tied a belt around my chest and was pulling it tight, more prominent on the right side.  I could breathe but could not take deep breaths because it hurt very badly.  I didnt feel like eating much of anything - just smoothies and ice cream.  After two days the fever and chest pain went away.  The following day the fever and chest pain returned, then went away again. But still, I feel the pain around my chest and it is pains me to take deep breaths. I still dont have much of an appetite, and especially after I eat my chest hurts (tightness) and deep breaths are impossible.  I dont work, have no kids and have no stress in my life - so I know it isnt anxiety.  Im wondering if I should see a doctor?

Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. By your history and description, possibility of post infectious bronchitis is more likely. Bronchitis is inflammation of airways. It causes bronchospasm and this in turn causes chest tightness, breathing difficulty etc. It is common after viral upper respiratory tract infection like common cold. So better to consult pulmonologist and get done clinical examination of respiratory system and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test).PFT will not only diagnose bronchitis, but it will also tell you about severity of the disease and treatment is based on severity only. You will need inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or albuterol) and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) (budesonide or fluticasone).Don't worry, you will be alright with all these. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
