πŸ«πŸ’™ Living with COPD? While there’s no cure, there’s plenty you can do to manage it and improve your quality of life. COPD happens when the lungs become inflamed, damaged and narrowed - often due to smoking, long‑term exposure to dust/fumes or genetic factors.

Here are some ways to live well with COPD:
πŸ”Ή Stop smoking - the single most effective step.
πŸ”Ή Take inhalers and follow your treatment plan to reduce flare‑ups.
πŸ”Ή Stay active, eat well, keep weight in check and avoid triggers like pollution or cold air.
πŸ”Ή Be alert to symptoms like persistent cough with phlegm, shortness of breath or wheezing - mention them to your GP.

Call your practice to check your eligibility for a free NHS flu jab.

Stay well this winter – book your flu vaccination! πŸ’™
