Fluid left in plural cavity.

2017-06-22 03:34:14
About a year back I was treated for tubercolosis, and some fluid from plural cavity was removed by IC tube. Post treatment some fluid was left in the cavity which I want to be treated. It's not reoccurring, just due to my carelessness the whole fluid was not able to removed. Currently i have no prblm, no pain, no breathing issues, just the fluid.

Hi. I understand your concerns. You will need to undergo a detailed examination and investigations like chest x ray to look for amount of fluid present. Based on that things can be done. Consult a pulmonologist for the same.
