Spirometry is a common breathing test that can tell us why you have a cough, wheezing or shortness of breath, and can help diagnose some lung problems. It measures how much air you can breathe in and out, and how easily and fast you can the blow air out of your lungs. This can help diagnose conditions like asthma and COPD, and can help determine if your medications or inhalers are working properly. Depending on the results of the test, your doctor may prescribe medications to help improve your lung function.
