yes, bad posture can cause chest tightness due to the tension in the surrounding muscles, specifically the chests and shoulders and back muscles. This tension can result in the muscles becoming shorter and tighter, which can cause the chest to feel stuffier and more uncomfortable. Furthermore, it can cause the ribcage to expand unevenly, impacting the diaphragm's ability to expand properly, potentially leading to shortness of breath and a more restrictive feeling in the chest.
