What is Emphysema?

Emphysema is a chronic lung condition that gradually damages the air sacs (alveoli) in the lungs, leading to difficulty breathing. This damage reduces the lungs' ability to transfer oxygen to the bloodstream, causing symptoms such as shortness of breath, wheezing, and fatigue.

Emphysema is commonly associated with long-term smoking or exposure to pollutants. Although emphysema cannot be cured, effective management can slow its progression, reduce symptoms, and improve quality of life.

Are You Struggling with Shortness of Breath and Fatigue Due to Emphysema?

Living with emphysema can make simple tasks feel exhausting, leaving you breathless and fatigued. The condition may restrict your activities, making it challenging to work, exercise, or enjoy time with loved ones. You may feel uncertain about how to manage symptoms and protect your lung health. But with the right support, you can effectively manage emphysema and improve your ability to breathe, stay active, and live comfortably.

Emphysema Can Be Restrictive – But It Doesn’t Have to Limit Your Life

  • Physical Symptoms: Shortness of breath, reduced endurance, and difficulty breathing deeply.
  • Emotional Strain: Frustration and worry over breathing difficulties and potential health risks.
  • Fairness: Everyone deserves access to care that helps them manage emphysema, breathe easier, and enjoy a fulfilling life.
