Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a progressive lung disease that makes it difficult to breathe. It's often caused by long-term exposure to irritants that damage the lungs, primarily smoking. COPD encompasses two main conditions:
These conditions can develop together, worsening over time and making breathing increasingly difficult.
While there are no distinct subtypes of COPD, its severity can be classified based on lung function tests:
Mild COPD
Moderate COPD
Severe COPD
Very Severe COPD
The leading cause of COPD is:

COPD, or Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, is a progressive lung condition characterized by airflow limitation and difficulty breathing. It encompasses chronic bronchitis and emphysema and is often caused by long-term exposure to irritants such as cigarette smoke, air pollution, or occupational dust and chemicals.
Common symptoms of COPD include shortness of breath, chronic cough, wheezing, chest tightness, and excessive mucus production. These symptoms can vary in severity and may worsen over time if left untreated. Recognizing the signs of COPD is crucial for early diagnosis and effective management.
COPD is primarily caused by exposure to irritants that damage the lungs over time. The most significant risk factor for COPD is smoking, but other factors such as environmental pollutants, genetic predisposition, and respiratory infections can also contribute to its development.
COPD management aims to relieve symptoms, prevent exacerbations, and improve quality of life. Treatment may involve lifestyle modifications (such as smoking cessation and exercise), medications (such as bronchodilators and corticosteroids), pulmonary rehabilitation, oxygen therapy, and, in advanced cases, surgical interventions such as lung volume reduction surgery or lung transplantation.
