Smoking causes the metabolic rate to decrease hence, the patient will feel more tired. Also Emphysema and chronic bronchitis are the most common conditions that make up COPD. Damage to the lungs from COPD can't be reversed.Symptoms include shortness of breath, wheezing, or a chronic cough.Rescue inhalers and inhaled or oral steroids can help control symptoms and minimize further damage.
