***Damned***

When I shout or laugh too hard, I always get some breathing problems afterwards. HELP!?

I always get the feeling that there is phlegm in my throat, at the windpipe area. Breathing becomes pretty difficult, cause I get the feeling that I can't fill up my lungs.

This phlegm also feels very hard to get rid off.

GO SEE A DOCTOR

Sometimes, thick phlegm can be cured as simply as increasing your water intake which makes the phlegm thinner and easier to cough up. There is also a product called Mucinex which is made to assist in people coughing up phlegm. You might try either of these ideas and if they don't work, talk with your doctor.

It sounds like asthma. I would know, I've had it for 19 years. It can be caused by exertion (and shouting/laughing can be respiratory exertion).

i geuss you might probably have gastroesophageal reflux

you might want to mention this to your DR and have them test you for asthma - that's how i get before i have most of my asthma attacks - i feel like when i take a breath i can only get air into the top 1/3 of my lungs. asthma is sometimes caused and often associated with excess mucus production and alveolar swelling or spasm.
btw, since i was dx last year and got an albuterol inhaler, i haven't felt that way in a few months (except when i start laughing really really hard and then can't breath so i start coughing and then i need the inhaler but other than that it's much better). so yeah, go see your dr - like in the next two weeks.

Sounds like asthma. Laughing too much/too hard is one trigger of my asthma. It feels like you describe, like there is phlegm in my throat and I cant get a full breath. Mention it to your doctor, an albuterol inhaler can be carried with you and relieve your symptoms in just a few seconds.
