Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF)

The severe lung condition is idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Oxygen travels in your lungs and blood supply by thin air bags as you breathe in. It goes to the organs from there. IPF adds to the formation of scar tissue in your lungs and to breathing difficult. With time it gets worse. The thickness of the IPF scar tissue like the cuts you get after a wound on your scalp. It slows the flow of oxygen from your lungs into the blood, so the body cannot function properly.
