How to use "Labored" in context?
Labored breathing is a symptom of many diseases, most notably asthma and pneumonia. In asthma, the airway becomes inflamed and narrowed, leading to breathlessness and hyperventilation. In pneumonia, the infection sets in and causes the lungs to become congested and dry. The combination of these factors can result in labored breathing. Both asthma and pneumonia can be treated with medication and adaptive therapy, such as using an indoor air filter. However, if the condition is severe, surgery may be necessary to remove the obstruction.
