Emphasyma (in humans) is from second hand cigarette smoke. If a horse has emphasyma it may be from inhaling smoke over a long period of time. But what is likely the case is that the horse has what is called the heaves. An unfortunately incurable problem much like chronic bronchitis. The heaves is caused by lung infections that have been left untreated and that have destroyed the cells in the lungs beyond repair. Try researching the heaves in horses and see where that gets you.
