Find a DoctorLung Fibrosis: Why Early Diagnosis & Treatment Matter
Oct 1, 2025
Lung fibrosis often begins subtly, with symptoms such as breathlessness, a persistent cough, chest discomfort, or difficulty breathing. It may also be associated with conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis or skin lesions. Dr Nevin Kishore, Head of Bronchology & Senior Consultant – Respiratory Medicine, Max Hospital, Gurugram, stresses that early detection and timely medication are crucial. Left untreated, interstitial lung disease (ILD) can progress quickly, making everyday tasks like climbing stairs or walking to the bathroom extremely difficult. Early diagnosis and treatment can slow disease progression and improve quality of life. If you notice these warning signs, consult a pulmonologist without delay.
