COPD and Lung Health

Self-Management of COPD

In COPD, self-management, focused on an action plan for improved and better contact between the patient and health care professionals, makes clinical sense. The reality that symptoms of COPD can change on a regular basis owing to disease exacerbations and progression is a common feature. As a result, the best strategy to prevent COPD is to avoid or stop smoking. Before taking drugs, making meals, eating, coughing or sneezing, using the restroom, handling filthy linens or clothes, and after being near somebody with a cold or the flu, as well as after being surrounded by others, you should be hygienic.
