Preferred term

respiratory problems  

Definition

  • Because of the size of some people who suffer from obesity, many have developed respiratory problems. This has been evident throughout history with much of it thought to come from the extra pressure that the weight puts on the person's heart, although it is now clear that it is because of the increased work that has to be done by the lungs of someone suffering from obesity.
