COPD: Know the causes, symptoms, and treatment options | Dr. Sanjeev Mallick | CARE Hospitals

Dr. Sanjeev Mallick, Consultant, Pulmonology, CARE Hospitals, Bhubaneswar, talks about COPD as a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. It is a very treatable and preventable disease that prevents the patients from emptying the air out of their lungs, giving them a sensation of shortness of breath. It also presents with a cough, extra mucus production with the cough, fatigue, and the sensation of breathing harder while active or sometimes at rest.
