Breathing problems from bad posture

[Christopher M.]

Lately when I lean back in a chair, just the pressure of the chair is
restricting my breathing. Even slouching forward can cause problems. Do I
need to strengthen my lower back?

No. You need to see a physician, preferably a pulmonary
specialist. What you describe is quite abnormal.
