Pulmonologists treat a variety of lung and respiratory conditions, including but not limited to:
- Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
- Asthma
- Pulmonary Fibrosis
- Sleep Apnoea
- Lung Cancer
- Pneumonia
- Tuberculosis
- Interstitial Lung Disease
Pulmonologists use a variety of diagnostic tests to evaluate lung health, including:
- Pulmonary Function Tests (PFTs): To measure how well the lungs are functioning.
- Chest X-rays/CT scans: To detect abnormal conditions in the lungs.
- Arterial Blood Gas (ABG): To assess oxygen and carbon dioxide levels in the blood.
- Sputum Test: To check for infections like tuberculosis or pneumonia.
- Bronchoscopy: A procedure where a tube is inserted into the lungs to examine airways and collect tissue samples.
While both COPD and asthma affect the airways, they are different in nature:
- Asthma is often triggered by allergens or irritants and involves inflammation and narrowing of the airways, usually reversible with treatment. Symptoms often include wheezing, coughing, and shortness of breath.
- COPD, on the other hand, is a progressive and irreversible lung disease typically caused by smoking, characterized by airflow limitation and difficulty breathing.
Managing lung health often involves lifestyle changes such as:
- Quitting Smoking: Smoking is the leading cause of lung disease, especially COPD and lung cancer.
- QExercising Regularly: Physical activity helps improve lung capacity and overall health.
- QAvoiding Environmental Triggers: Reducing exposure to allergens, pollution, and second-hand smoke can help reduce symptoms.
- QHealthy Diet: Eating nutritious food can strengthen the immune system and support overall lung health.
Treatment for pulmonary conditions varies based on the specific disease but may include:
- Medications: Inhalers, corticosteroids, bronchodilators, and antibiotics.
- Oxygen Therapy: For individuals with severe lung disease or low oxygen levels in the blood.
- Pulmonary Rehabilitation: A program to improve lung function.
- Surgery: In some cases, surgery such as lung transplantation may be necessary for severe cases of lung disease.
