Interstitial lung disease | Prof. Dr. Syed Arshad Husain

Interstitial lung disease (ILD) refers to a group of disorders that cause progressive scarring (fibrosis) of lung tissue, affecting the interstitium, which is the network of tissue that supports the lungs' alveoli (air sacs). This scarring can lead to stiffness in the lungs, making it difficult to breathe and get enough oxygen into the bloodstream.
Common symptoms of ILD include:
🔹Shortness of breath, especially during or after physical activity.
🔹A persistent dry cough.
🔹Fatigue and weakness.
🔹Chest discomfort
