This includes diseases such as asthma (an inflammatory condition of the airways), pneumonia (an infection in the lungs), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD, a long-term lung disease), and lung cancer. Symptoms often involve difficulties in breathing, coughing, wheezing, or chest discomfort.
