5. Management of Stage 2A and Stage 2B

Because the condition’s severity increases in stage 2, the management methods also become a bit more elaborate. Typically, a person in stage 2 will undergo pulmonary rehabilitation under the guidance of physicians, nurses, and therapists. A rehab program might involve exercise training, breathing techniques, health education, and meetings with peer groups.

Doctors often use long-acting bronchodilators once their patients enter stage 2.
