When Breathing Becomes a Challenge –
Understanding COPD

Speaker:
Dr. Meike Jungen
Clinical Department of Pneumology and Infectious Diseases, MHH

COPD is a lung disease in which breathing becomes increasingly difficult. Many people first notice it during physical activity such as climbing stairs or going for a walk. Coughing, phlegm, and shortness of breath are among the most common symptoms. But taking action early can make a big difference!

 

Open to anyone interested.
