There are 4 main Respiratory Diseases

Asthma

Respiratory Allergies

Occupational Lung Diseases and

Pulmonary Hypertension

Asthma

It is a chronic disease affecting the air passages of the

lungs which inflames and narrows them.

The strongest risk factors for developing asthma are

inhaled substances and particles that may provoke

allergic reactions or irritate the airways.

Medication can control asthma. Avoiding asthma triggers

can also reduce the severity of asthma.

Appropriate management of asthma can enable people to

enjoy a good quality of life.

Recurrent asthma symptoms frequently cause

sleeplessness, daytime fatigue, reduced activity levels

and school and work absenteeism.


COPD

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a life-

threatening lung disease that interferes with normal

breathing – it is more than a “smoker’s cough”.

The primary cause of COPD is tobacco smoke (through

tobacco use or second-hand smoke).

The disease now affects men and women almost equally,

due in part to increased tobacco use among women in

high-income countries.

COPD is not curable, but treatment can slow the progress

of the disease.

Daily activities, such as walking up a short of stairs or

carrying a suitcase, can become very difficult as the

condition gradually worsens.


Respiratory Allergies

They are allergic reactions caused by substances

(allergens) to which allergic people have become

sensitized.

Allergens can be: pollen from trees and grasses, house

dust mite, mould spores, pets, such as cats and dogs.

Allergic rhinitis (hay fever) is one of the most common

allergies which affects the nose and eyes.

Symptoms can be: itchy, runny or congested nose,

sneezing. Also irritable airways, coughing, tight chest,

wheezing, shortness of breath.


Occupational Lung Diseases and

Pulmonary Hypertension

Pulmonary hypertension is a lung disorder characterized

by a narrowing of the blood vessels in the lungs,

increasing their blood pressure and causing the heart to

work harder to transport blood into the lungs.

This condition may co-exist and exacerbate a variety of

lung diseases and can lead to heart failure.

Occupational lung diseases are a board group of

diagnoses caused by the inhalation of dusts, chemicals,

or proteins.

The severity of the disease is related to the material

inhaled and the intensity and duration of the exposure.

Even individuals who do not work in the industry can

develop occupational disease through indirect exposure.
