Guest guest Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 Thaddeus got his Brace Last week and he has been in it 20 hours a day since sunday the 7th. i noticed that he is taking shorter breaths since he has been in the brace(even with it off now too) is this normal?? should i be worried? His PT said today it could be his way of adapting to the restriction of the brace and he is taking small breaths to get more oxygen. it seams like he is holding his breath and he is making the PSST noice when he lets it out. i was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this, could it be from lung restriction from the Scoli? i think im going to make an appt with his Ped tomorrow just in case.. any thoughts.
