Congestive heart failure causes a build-up of fluid in the body, resulting in swollen ankles, a swollen and possibly painful abdomen, and shortness of breath when there is fluid build-up in the lungs.

fluid can build up in and around his lungs making it hard for him to breathe
Pulmonary edema is swelling in the lungs. The swelling is from fluid. The fluid causes the exchange of oxygen with co2 to become impaired. The result is hypoxia which is lack of oxygen in the blood.
You need to find out what is causing the fluid build up. If it is due to congestive heart failure, there are medications that can help to strengthen the heart so it pumps properly, as the result of fluid build up can be life threatening. Pneumonia can be another cause for fluid in the lungs, this needs to be treated with antibiotics as to much fluid can weigh down the tiny hairs that are in your lungs. These hairs need to be able to flutter (move) if wet and weighed down they will not move and again a serious situation can be at hand. Bottom line...find out what is causing the fluid in your lungs, somethines we feel congested but that doesn't mean that we have fluid in our lungs, it's just congestion. I am not a doctor although I have worked for doctors and from that experience I make the statements above.
