Pulmonary diseases include asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pulmonary fibrosis, pneumonia, and lung cancer. Also called lung disorder and respiratory disease.
Pulmonology is a branch of medicine that deals with all diseases of the lungs, airways, and respiratory muscles. It includes asthma, bronchitis, interstitial lung disease, COPD, and sleep apnea.
But there is a difference between an otolaryngologist and a pulmonologist. An Otolaryngologist is referred to as an ENT specialist who treats the diseases of ear, nose, and throat. A pulmonologist on the other hand specializes in the primary areas of the respiratory system. He/she treats diseases like asthma and COPD.
