Authors

Abstract
This case study delves
into the intricate interplay between personal habits, environmental factors,
and comorbidities in the development and progression of chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease (COPD). It presents the case of a 58-year-old male with a
significant history of bidi smoking, hypertension, and occupational exposure to
secondhand smoke in a bar and restaurant setting. The patient's clinical
presentation, diagnostic findings, and management strategies underscore the
importance of a multidisciplinary approach encompassing smoking cessation,
pharmacological interventions, and addressing associated conditions.
