Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

with UAMS Family Medicine & the College of Medicine

Learn about COPD along with how it can be managed to avoid complications and further damage.

COPD is a term for certain types of irreversible lung damage that blocks airways and makes it hard to breathe. If you have either emphysema or chronic bronchitis, you have COPD. To understand Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, it is important to know the causes, risk factors, and symptoms involved.
