The word “pulmonary” means lung and the word “fibrosis” means scar tissue— similar to scars that form on the skin from an old injury or surgery.
Pulmonary fibrosis is a serious, lifelong lung disease.
This thickened, stiff tissue makes it more difficult for your lungs to work properly and worsen over time.
As it gets worse, people become more and more short of breath as it makes more difficult for oxygen to pass into your bloodstream.
It is a common end result of a variety of lung disorders, when the affected portion of the lung is damaged, shrunken, firm and airless.
More likely to affect men than women between 50 – 70 years old.
Signs and symptoms of pulmonary fibrosis may include:
- Dyspnoea – Shortness of breath.
- Shallow spurts, especially during exertion or soon after you exercise.
- Cough with excessive phlegm (with pus).
- Dry cough that doesn’t go away.
- Blood-tinged sputum
- Unintended weight loss.
- Aching muscles and joints.
- Clubbing that is widening and rounding of the tips of the fingers or toes.
- Chest on affected side is retracted and flat
- Extreme tiredness, no matter how much you rest or sleep.
- Cyanosis, bluish skin (in fair-skinned people) or grey or white skin around the mouth or eyes (in dark-skinned people) from too little oxygen in the blood.

Natural remedies can affect the body and may not suit everyone. At the start of treatment, some patients—especially with mental health or skin issues—may experience a temporary increase in symptoms. This may represent medicinal aggravation, indicating the body is responding, though symptoms may not be connected and simply coincidental. If they persist, contact us for support.
Why some patients choose natural, complementary or holistic remedies:
• Symptomatic relief and improved well-being
• Gentle options with fewer side effects
• Whole-person focus, addressing physical, emotional, and lifestyle factors
• Root-cause and preventive emphasis
• Encouragement of active self-care
• Support alongside conventional treatment
• Personalised and accessible care
Precautions:
• Inform your healthcare provider about any complementary therapies
• Some herbs or supplements may interact with conventional medications
• Do not replace conventional treatment for serious, chronic, or terminal conditions
These complementary remedy kits are provided for your own discretion and personal responsibility. Use them mindfully and avoid self-medicating in sensitive situations.
