    Interstitial Lung Disease Treatment in Jaipur (ILD)

    Interstitial lung disease or ILD includes a very large group of conditions that cause inflammation and scarring in the alveoli (the air sacs of the lungs). Through these air-sacs, oxygen travels into the main bloodstream. When these air-sacs are scarred, they are not able to expand. Thus, less oxygen travels in the blood.
