Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
Know About Treatment
COPD is a progressive lung disease characterized by persistent airflow obstruction, leading to difficulty in breathing. It encompasses conditions such as chronic bronchitis and emphysema. Long-term exposure to pollutants, including cigarette smoke, is a major cause of COPD. Symptoms include chronic cough, excessive mucus production, and breathlessness. Early diagnosis and management can slow disease progression and improve the patient’s quality of life.
