Abstract :

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a serious respiratory disorder that may leads to airway obstruction and may further causes difficulty in breathing. Smoking is considered as the major risk factor for the occurrence of COPD. Both current smokers and ex-smokers have a great chance for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Smoking cessation is the most effective method to control COPD to a great extend. Improving the lifestyle may helps to reduce chronic obstructive pulmonary disease to a great extend.
