Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Diseases (COPD) If you are a smoker or inhale tobacco in any form, you are most likely to suffer from this disease.

Sometimes Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease can also be caused due to genetic reasons. Symptoms - Shortness of breath - Wheezing - Cough Complications - AIDS - Tuberculosis - Lung cancer Please note that this is a long-term disease that doesn’t have a proper cure.

Asthma is of various types. These include allergic, non-allergic, occupational, cough-variant, nocturnal, aspirin-induced, and exercise-induced bronchoconstriction asthma. Symptoms - Dry cough - Tightness in the chest - Whistling sound while exhaling - Fatigue Causes There are mainly two causes. - Your genes: If someone in your family has asthma, you can have it too. - Less exposure to bacteria during the infant stage: Some babies are grown in such hygienic conditions that there is no bacteria for their bodies to fight while they are growing up. This situation takes away their opportunity to strengthen their immunity. Treatment - Take long term medications to manage asthma. - Do breathing exercises. - Get Bronchodilators through a nebulizer.
3. Emphysema Emphysema is a severe form of COPD. The condition defines the situation when the air sacs that are in your lungs get damaged, narrowed, over-inflated, or stretched. It evolves over the years and eventually leads to respiratory failure. Unfortunately, it has no cure. Symptoms - Chronic cough - Shortness of breath - Wheezing - Fatigue - Loss of appetite - Anxiety - Insomnia - Headaches Causes It is no surprise that the most common cause is smoking. Tobacco damages the air sacs to such a level that they are no longer capable of repairing themselves. The other major cause is your genes.

It can be kept in control with the help of medications. If gone severe you might have to go for surgery. Here are the medications you can take.
