Difference between Lung and Physical therapy

Lung vs. Physical therapy

The lungs are the primary organs of the respiratory system in humans and many other animals including a few fish and some snails. Physical therapy (PT), also known as physiotherapy, is one of the allied health professions that, by using mechanical force and movements (bio-mechanics or kinesiology), manual therapy, exercise therapy, and electrotherapy, remediates impairments and promotes mobility and function.

Similarities between Lung and Physical therapy

Lung and Physical therapy have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, Circulatory system, Cystic fibrosis, Muscle, Pulmonary fibrosis, Stroke.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a type of obstructive lung disease characterized by long-term breathing problems and poor airflow.

Circulatory system

The circulatory system, also called the cardiovascular system or the vascular system, is an organ system that permits blood to circulate and transport nutrients (such as amino acids and electrolytes), oxygen, carbon dioxide, hormones, and blood cells to and from the cells in the body to provide nourishment and help in fighting diseases, stabilize temperature and pH, and maintain homeostasis.

Cystic fibrosis

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disorder that affects mostly the lungs, but also the pancreas, liver, kidneys, and intestine.

Pulmonary fibrosis

Pulmonary fibrosis (literally "scarring of the lungs") is a respiratory disease in which scars are formed in the lung tissues, leading to serious breathing problems.

Lung and Physical therapy Comparison

Lung has 327 relations, while Physical therapy has 126. As they have in common 6, the Jaccard index is 1.32% = 6 / (327 + 126).
