World Health Organization officials look at the spread of the smoking diseases with concern as it has been determined that the diseases will become the world's third biggest killer by 2020.

Another fact that is also concerning is that there are 1.1 billion smokers worldwide at the moment.
These diseases are called Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and include chronic-obstructive bronchitis and emphysema of the lungs.
These health problems lead to narrowing of the breathing passage due to swelling of the mucous membrane and emphysema decomposes lung tissue. The biggest problem with COPD is that it works very slowly and by the time we notice anything, it had already spread a long way and attacked the body for years.
One of the early symptoms is a breathing problem after exertion. Another regular symptom is abnormal bronchial passage sensitivity to outside influences most commonly is cigarette smoking.

Unfortunately, there are no methods to rebuild lungs yet. Similarly to the brain, what is destroyed is destroyed for good and the first step to leading a better life is quitting smoking immediately.
