Chronic dry cough with breathlessness
I have had a chronic dry cough for the past 2 months
And having breathing problems with inflammation of lungs
My spirometer report was 87%
After taking medicine for 15 days
There is just a little improvement
I just want to know if anybody (pulmonologist)
Can tell what's wrong with me
I am a 32 male and a non smoker
I am afraid of having copd
Please any doctor can clear my doubts then do reply.
Can Copd occur at the age of 30-35?
How long can you prevent copd from progression at stage-1 ?
And how long one can live a normal life with stage one until it progresses?
Do i have it or not ?
Please if any one can help 🙏🏻
