Smoking has many adverse effects on the lungs of the smokers. It slowly eats the organs of the smoker. One such condition is chronic bronchitis. The chronic inflammatory condition of the lungs is called chronic bronchitis. It causes the respiratory passages to be swollen and irritated, increases the mucous production and damages the lungs. This results in coughing and breathlessness which grows worse as time passes. The best way to prevent this condition is by stopping smoking completely. Majority of the people who develop chronic bronchitis are smokers. When the lungs are damaged to the extent that it restricts airflow, the condition is called chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The major cause of chronic bronchitis is smoking. The other things that make the condition worse are air pollution and allergy. The seriousness of the disease depends on how long and how much the smoker has been smoking. When one contracts chronic bronchitis, the person coughs a lot. He easily gets short of breath. The sputum becomes thick and difficult to cough up. One must stop smoking to avert this condition. The medical adviser can suggest Stop smoking drugs or other ways to stop smoking. One should avoid irritations like smoke etc. in the surroundings. The infections in the respiratory channels should be treated immediately. One should also avoid passive smoking. X-ray examinations, lung function tests, ECG and blood samples are used to diagnose and assert the severity of this condition. The difference between asthma and COPD is that the airway obstruction in COPD is largely irreversible while that in asthma is reversible with medications. | |||

What Point Are you trying to make here. I think you are on the wrong website. | ||||

I think it's a bot type thing where an automated message is sent out to all sites that might include smoking; everything from hookah venues to cancer sites. Not a real person, no one to respond to. Let it go. It won't be back. This is what the poster is selling: Another scam Mimi | ||||
