Definition

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the most common lung diseases. It makes it difficult to breathe. There are two main forms of COPD:

Chronic bronchitis, defined by a long-term cough with mucus
Emphysema, defined by destruction of the lungs over time

Most people with COPD have a combination of both conditions.
