10 Blood Clot in Lung Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Symptom #8: Wheezing
A wheeze can be defined as a whistling, coarse, and continuous sound that is produced by either an obstruction or narrowing of a part of the respiratory airway. This causes the air to move through the passage with increased velocity, resulting in the wheeze sound.
Wheezing is most commonly seen in individuals with lung diseases such as congestive heart failure, asthma attacks, lung cancer, and a blood clot in the lung. When wheezing occurs, it is generally a good idea to seek medical attention as it means that there is breathing difficulty.
