Overview
Emphysema is a lung ailment that makes you feel breathless. The lungs' air sacs (alveoli) are damaged in emphysema patients. As time passes, the air sacs' inner walls deteriorate and tear, resulting in the creation of fewer, larger air gaps as opposed to smaller ones. This lessens the surface area of the lungs, which in turn limits the amount of oxygen that gets to your bloodstream. Air gets retained during exhalation because the injured alveoli are unable to function effectively, blocking the passageway for new, oxygen-rich air.
