Thanks for your question on HCM.
COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) is progressive disease.
And infections are the most common cause for worsening Of COPD.
Treatment of COPD is not only oral drugs like antibiotics and inhalers. You need to start following things to.
1. Enroll yourself in pulmonary rehabilitation center where chest physiotherapy and deep breathing exercise has been done.
2. Get done adult respiratory vaccines like pneumpcoccal and influenzae to prevent risk of future infection.
Both of these, along with inhalers, will improve your symptoms, decrease need for antibiotics, improve oxygenation.
