Why do your lungs hurt with aerobic exercise?

It's most likely what is called "Athlete's Asthma." Though, even though the name has the word "athlete" in it, it is not exclusive to those that are athletic, much like "athlete's foot." Actually, at times more the exact opposite. Though, part of it could also easily be attributed to being "out of shape," athlete's asthma can exacerbate the problem. Definitely something worth talking to your doctor about as he can prescribe an inhaler that is used only when exercising, which will help with this. This advice is not an alternative to proper medical advice and is only used as a suggestion for the consideration of seeking further medical consultation with a licensed professional.
