Noted you are having COPD .... There are no permanent treatment for this.... For breathlessness bronchodilator through metered dose inhaler can be given.... If dyspnea more lead acute attack then levosalbutamol can be given through nebulization....
Avoid respiratory irritant like smoking , environmental pollution , dust exposure to less.....
Here if long term duration of COPD then pulmonary hypertension induce right side heart failure that is cor pulmonale has to be ruled out.....ECG or echo useful...
Take care....
