chronic lung conditions
Chronic lung conditions are long-term health issues that affect the lungs and breathing. Common examples include asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and pulmonary fibrosis. These conditions can cause symptoms like coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath, making it difficult for individuals to perform daily activities.
These lung conditions often result from factors such as smoking, long-term exposure to pollutants, or genetic predispositions. Management typically involves medications, lifestyle changes, and regular check-ups with healthcare providers to monitor lung function and improve quality of life.
