water in lungs I am a copd person i have a cold the dr.said fluid on my lungs

Hello. Thank you for reaching out to us.

Pulmonary edema occurs when the alveoli fill up with excess fluid seeped out of the blood vessels in the lung instead of air. This can cause problems with the exchange of gas (oxygen and carbon dioxide), resulting in breathing difficulty and poor oxygenation of blood.

It's good you saw your doctor about this. I hope you feel better soon.
