Most septal deformities result in no symptoms, and you may not even know you have a deviated septum. Some septal deformities, however, may cause the following signs and symptoms: Obstruction of one or both nostrils. This obstruction can make it difficult to breathe through the nostril or nostrils.
COPD is a type of obstructive lung disease in which chronic incompletely reversible poor airflow (airflow limitation) and inability to breathe out fully (air trapping) exist. The poor airflow is the result of breakdown of lung tissue (known as emphysema) and small airways disease (known as obstructive bronchiolitis).
Doctors classify lung disease as either obstructive or restrictive. The term obstructive lung disease includes conditions that hinder a personâs ability to exhale all the air from their lungs. Those with restrictive lung disease experience difficulty fully expanding their lungs.
