COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease)

What is COPD?

COPD is a progressive lung disease that makes breathing increasingly difficult due to long-term airway inflammation and damage, most commonly caused by smoking or exposure to irritants.

How is it Diagnosed?

Your doctor may perform spirometry, chest X-rays or CT scans, and oxygen testing to evaluate lung function and rule out other conditions.

How is it Treated?

While COPD cannot be cured, inhaled medications, oxygen therapy, and pulmonary rehabilitation can significantly improve symptoms and quality of life. Quitting smoking is the most effective step in slowing progression.
