Muscle spasms can cause shortness of breath, go see a “Spinal Specialist”or “Orthopedic Specialist”, you could have a “Pinched Nerve”, I say this as I have already had two back surgeries and am heading for a third due to Degenerative Disc Disease and the colapse of the Foramina which is a hole where the nerve bundles come out through the vertebra

Beware of the chiropractors. If his treatments are not helping you go to a MD.
I was treated by a chiropractor for about a year after a car accident. I kept getting worse until I went to a MD and he sent me to a Orthopedic doctor. To make a long story short I had to have 2 cervical spine operations and had permanent nerve damage partly due to the chiropractors ‘adjustments’
