Pulmonary Edema
Pulmonary edema is a buildup of fluid in your lungs. That can make it hard for you to breathe. When you take a breath, your lungs should fill with air. If you have pulmonary edema, they fill with fluid instead. When that happens, oxygen from the air can’t get from your lungs into your blood, where it’s needed.
