In the 2015 report, the incidence of COPD in China has risen to 12%, and it is also reported that it is listed as one of the four major human-threatening diseases in the World Health Organization, namely, chronic respiratory diseases, cardio-cerebrovascular diseases, diabetes and cancer. The series of COPD can be said to be an important branch of chronic respiratory diseases. However, COPD is still not well understood, and it needs to be publicized and popularized.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

COPD is actually chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, so it can be said to be a series of COPD, such as chronic bronchitis, pneumonia, etc., can be said to be one of the veins of COPD. COPD is a developing, progressive and irreversible airway obstructive disease. In fact, that is, some inflammation of the lungs has always existed, causing respiratory tract spasm, closure and other reactions, ventilation dysfunction, ventilator fatigue and other pathology.

Long-term development in the past, the more blocked the respiratory tract, the more suffocating, the more wheezing, and once the formation of respiratory tract obstruction will not be reversed. In recent years, a series of COPD diseases have been increasing, which is closely related to the straight rise of industrial exhaust gas, automobile exhaust and other emissions. Other factors are allergens, cooking fumes, interior decoration pollution, factory dust, particulates, and so on. If it is a susceptible constitution, it is more likely to be infected and sick, and it is also easy to develop and worsen rapidly.

Indirect and direct smoking in COPD

Indirect or direct smoking is also a major cause of lung diseases such as COPD. Statistics show that the greater the amount of smoking and the longer the smoking history, the greater the possibility of suffering from COPD. Compared with non-smokers, smokers are 10 times more likely to suffer from chronic bronchitis. If smokers smoke more than 40 cigarettes a day, the risk of chronic bronchitis will be as high as 75.3%. In terms of mortality of COPD, the Deswan rate of COPD in smokers was also higher than that in non-smokers.
