Major Respiratory Disorders include asthma, which will cause a condition where the airways are persistently inflamed, and may occasionally spasm, causing wheezing and shortness of breath. Allergies, Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD): Lung conditions defined by an inability to exhale normally, which causes difficulty breathing. Emphysema: Lung damage allows air to be trapped in the lungs in this form of COPD. Difficulty blowing air out is its hallmark. Cystic fibrosis: A genetic condition causing poor clearance of mucus from the bronchi. The accumulated mucus results in repeated lung infections. Acute bronchitis: A sudden infection of the airways, usually by a virus. Sleep problems also related to Respiratory disorder.
