10 Adenovirus Symptoms
Symptom #6: Shortness of Breath
Shortness of breath or dyspnea is an uncomfortable sensation of not being able to get enough air. Affected individuals often complain of chest tightness, and an increased effort required to breathe normally. As mentioned before, patients with adenovirus infection can exhibit symptoms of an upper respiratory infection. Furthermore, patients can also experience tracheobronchitis, bronchiolitis, and pneumonia. Thus, dyspnea is one of the most common symptoms associated with these viral lower respiratory infections.
Shortness of breath is a symptom that can also be seen in cardiac ischemia, asthma, congestive heart failure, interstitial lung disease, anxiety, panic attacks and more.
