Answer by sergiudj
breathin trouble due to copd is caused by ireversibly damages done to ur lungs and asthma is a contraction of the small air tubes in your lungs

Answer by D.d.
When you have asthma, your bronchioles become inflammed and tighten up, making it difficult to breathe. COPD is actually a condition where your alvioli (the structures responsible for taking the oxygen you breathe and getting it into your blood) are damaged and cannot do their job correctly. Most people with COPD also have other lung conditions, such as chronic bronchitis, emphysema, and asthma to further complicate things.
