Diseases that are chronic and might be recurrent such as asthma and depression need to be taken care and controlled. The number of problems that individuals can have is countless. Medical problems ought to be fully evaluated and multiple etiologies should be ruled out. You have a good asnwer by Dr. Hobdari, but you need close care by your primary care physician , so you don t loose time in an emergency situation and can solve your clinical situation early .

Hope you are not short of breath now. Use your inhalers hope you have inhalers and go to nearest the ER unless you can see your doctor this AM. You will need a clinical assessment by a physician as well as diagnostic testing due to shortness of breath can be as simple as your asthma exacerbation or as complicated as a pulmonary embolism only a hands on physician will have to determine the right direction for your complaints .
LIndita Hobdari
My colleague, Dr. Corba, is right. A complaint of a localized chest pain that effects your breathing should be evaluated immediately. Very seldom will you find a localized complaint in asthma exacerbation. Pain under the right breast as you described could involve your rib cage, the muscles between the ribs, the pleura or lining of the lung, or the lung tissue itself. In any case, because it affects your breathing, you should seek help as soon as possible.

Be Well.

Regardless of age, location or quality, persistent chest pain needs to be evaluated by a competent medical professional.
Robert Rozner
Some of the asthma medications you may be taking are known to have angina (chest ) pain and bronchial spasm (constriction) as some of their adverse reactions. So you need have your doctor review your asthma treatment, possible dosage adjustment or substitutions.
Any shortness of breath should be evaluated immediately by a medical professional. I would head to your nearest ER>
