What is COPD about?
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) encompasses chronic bronchitis and emphysema, leading to airflow limitation and shortness of breath due to airway narrowing and inflammation. Risk factors include poor nutrition, aging, occupational exposures, and genetic conditions like alpha 1-antitrypsin deficiency. Management involves medical treatments such as bronchodilators and corticosteroids, as well as lifestyle changes and potential surgical interventions.
