Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a progressive lung condition characterized by airflow obstruction due to damage and inflammation in the lungs and airways, primarily caused by long-term exposure to irritants such as cigarette smoke, air pollution, dust, and chemicals. It encompasses two main conditions—emphysema, which involves destruction of the air sacs, and chronic bronchitis, marked by persistent inflammation of the airways. Symptoms include chronic cough with phlegm, shortness of breath, wheezing, and fatigue, often worsening over time even with minimal activity. COPD is a leading cause of mortality worldwide, affecting millions, with prevalence expected to rise due to ongoing environmental and lifestyle factors.
