Shallow breathing refers to breathing that is lighter and quicker than normal, using only the chest muscles. It can be a symptom of an underlying medical condition, such as sleep apnea, or a result of stress or anxiety. Shallow breathing can lead to reduced oxygen levels in the blood, which can have serious health consequences.
