Symptoms of respiratory conditions may include coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, fatigue, and respiratory infections. Risk factors for developing respiratory diseases include smoking, exposure to secondhand smoke, air pollution, occupational exposure, and a family history of respiratory conditions.

Prevention, Diagnosis, and Treatment Options

Preventing respiratory conditions involves adopting a healthy lifestyle, including smoking cessation, avoiding exposure to pollutants, maintaining a healthy weight, and getting vaccinated against respiratory infections such as influenza and pneumonia. Early detection of respiratory conditions is crucial for initiating timely treatment and preventing disease progression.
