Bronchitis:
Inflammation of the lining of bronchial tubes, which carry air to and from the lungs.
Asthma:
A condition in which a person’s airways become inflamed, narrow and swell and produce extra mucus, which makes it difficult to breathe.
Emphysema:
Emphysema is an abnormal permanent enlargement of air spaces distal to the terminal bronchioles, accompanied by the destruction of alveolar walls.
Lung Cancer:
Lung cancer, also known as lung carcinoma, is a malignant lung tumor characterized by uncontrolled cell growth in tissues of the lung.
