Daulal Vaishnav had these diseases

How dangerous are these diseases?

COPD is a dangerous disease of the lungs, in which the air route starts obstructing and there is difficulty in breathing.

When they are together, the condition of the patient becomes very serious.

Pneumonia spoiled health

He was taken care of 24 hours, but could not be saved due to the severity and age of diseases.

What does WHO say on COPD?

Severe lung diseases such as COPD and Pulmonary fibrosis are among the major causes of death at global level. According to the World Health Organization i.e. WHO, COPD is the third biggest cause of death worldwide. The risk of this disease increases due to air pollution, dust and smoking etc. At the same time, pulmonary fibrosis disease is not common, but its exact treatment is not present at the moment.
