Patient's question:
My younger cousin was diagnosed with emphysema after a thorough examination at a young age. He was particularly discouraged and wondered if there were people who had lived with emphysema for 50 years.Doctor's answer:
Emphysema is caused by chronic bronchitis. When symptoms occur, it is best to be hospitalized for intravenous treatment. In daily life, proper care should be taken, pay attention to keeping warm, avoid getting cold or overexerting oneself, and also avoid getting angry. Consume more protein-rich foods, engage in appropriate physical exercise, maintain a regular diet and lifestyle, and always keep a cheerful mood every day to prevent the recurrence of chronic bronchitis. Adjust clothing according to weather changes to prevent colds.
