causes & cures 4 COPD?

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease is caused by extensive damage to the lungs and often involves scaring which make the lung tissue less able to recoil...it literally becomes stiff and traps carbon dioxide. Asthma, Chronic Bronchitis and Emphysema are commonly associated. Smoking and other harmful substances that are chronically inhaled are also a main cause.

there is no cure. once someone has COPD they have it until they die. The lung tissue is beyond repair at this point and the treatments are usually bronchodialators, steroids, and oxygen therapy.
