Kwezinye izimo, kungase kube khona izimpawu ezimbalwa ezibonakalayo, futhi ungase ungaqapheli nokuthi unesifo. Uma izimpawu zivela, zivame ukuba zinyene futhi ziqhubeke, futhi zingabandakanya:

• isondo
• ukukhwehlela okuncane kepha okuphikisanayo
• ukukhathala
• ukuphelelwa umoya

Izindaba ezinhle ukuthi unganciphisa ukuqhubekela phambili kwe-COPD ezinyathelweni zakuqala uma nje uzimisele ukwenza ambalwa, izinguquko eziyisisekelo zokuphila.

Yeka Ukubhema Namuhla

Ukuyeka ukubhema kuyinto eyodwa okudingeka uyenze kunoma isiphi isigaba sesifo. Ngeke nje ukuyeka ukukwenza uzizwe ungcono ngokomzimba nangokomzwelo, kunganciphisa ngokuphawulekayo ukuqhubeka kwesifo.

Ukuyeka kungaba nzima, kodwa kunamasu amaningi ongathembela kuzo ukuqinisekisa ukuphumelela okukhulu. Phakathi kwazo:
