Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a progressive lung disease characterized by airflow limitation primarily caused by tobacco smoking and environmental pollutants. It includes chronic bronchitis and emphysema, with common symptoms such as cough and breathlessness, and is diagnosed mainly through spirometry.
