Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a long-term condition of a lung disorder in which the lungs are damaged with its severity. Usually, a person’s lung tissues are soft and flexible which helps the person to breathe easily. Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis affects the connective tissue of the lungs. This fibrous tissue secretes proteins called collagen into bones, muscles, and skin and acts to connect one part of the body to another, causing severe damage to tissue. It leads to swelling, stiffness, and scarring in lung tissues, resulting in irreversible damage. This process, known as fibrosis, causes difficulty in breathing and obstructs lung function.
