Description:
In this video, we explain what Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is — a serious lung condition that causes difficulty in breathing.
COPD occurs when the airways in the lungs become narrow and the lungs lose their elasticity over time.
🔹 Common Causes:
Smoking 🚬
Pollution and dust exposure
Repeated lung infections
Long-term exposure to harmful gases
🔹 Symptoms:
Persistent cough
Mucus (phlegm) production
Shortness of breath
Wheezing (whistling sound while breathing)
Fatigue
🔹 Treatment Options:
Quit smoking: The most effective step to prevent disease progression.
Medications:
Bronchodilators – help open the airways and make breathing easier.
Inhaled steroids – reduce inflammation in the lungs.
Oxygen therapy: For patients with severe breathing difficulty.
Pulmonary rehabilitation: Special exercises and training to strengthen the lungs and improve quality of life.

Surgery or lung transplant: In very advanced cases.

⚠️ Remember, COPD cannot be completely cured, but with proper treatment and lifestyle changes, symptoms can be controlled, and life can be improved.

Your health, your breath — protect it with the right treatment at the right time.
