[|AI|]  Thanks for your question hyperinflation of lungs are seen in emphysema which is a part of COPD a disease caused by smoking when the terminal parts of lungs which help in breathing get enlarged with air in them collectively this is called as emphysema this is a phenomenon that in turn causes lung destruction it can be diagnosed by a chest X-ray and a spirometry and accordingly can be staged as per staging medications can be started to control symptoms mostly inhaled puffs are enough to control the symptomsthanksfeel free to ask more questions
