<s>[INST] How do I know if I am having an asthma attack? [/INST] During an asthma attack, you will find it harder to breathe because your airways have become narrower. Your chest feels tight, and you can hear wheezing when you breathe or cough. You may feel as if you are trying to breathe through a straw in your mouth while holding your nose. Source: Ginasthma.
