Lung age refers to the age that your spirometry test results would be normal. For example, a 45 year old smoker may have the lungs of a 69 year old person who has never smoked. Lung age demonstrates the premature lung damage caused by smoking or other associated issues. Let's connect over a call and discuss your issue in detailed for an effective consultation. Thanks.
