Symptom #5: Wheezing

We don’t usually notice when we are breathing. Air is constantly passing in and out of our lungs, yet we are often oblivious that this is happening. We do tend to notice when we are breathing heavily, though, and we can also often hear the air rushing through our airways.

In cases of bronchiectasis, there is less space for the air to travel through. This forces air through a tight passage and this results in a wheezing sound. It is not an uncommon symptom and not necessarily a sign of something serious, but you should still arrange to get it checked out.
