What causes a high pitched whistle when breathing?

This causes an air vortex which in turn produces sound, and in this case a high pitched sound which is described as a whistle. Objects or other defects that can deflect air movement may also cause similar air vortices and result in a whistling sound. Most of the time a wheeze or stridor is accompanied by varying degrees of breathing impairment.
