Patient's question:
My father had some shortness of breath a few weeks ago and was thoroughly examined at the hospital, where he was diagnosed with emphysema. Which emphysema medication is better?Doctor's answer:
Emphysema is usually caused by the gradual expansion of chronic bronchitis. Generally, there are no significant symptoms at ordinary times, but after catching a cold or feeling cold, respiratory symptoms become more severe, making it very easy to cause symptoms such as difficulty breathing and shortness of breath. It may even lead to lung infections. Therefore, it is essential to promptly visit a respiratory medicine doctor at the hospital for follow-up and receive symptomatic drug treatment based on the specific condition.
