Mild hemothorax and pleural effusion

2023-08-07 14:14:24
Respectful Authority, My uncle had an accident recently and the report of CT brain was normal but has shown Mild Hemothrax along with right pleural thickening, fracture of 4th, 5th and 6th ribs according to HRCT Chest. He was admitted to the hospital and being treated in emergency room from 30th of July and was then sent to general ward a couple of days before. The X-ray report shows as mild blunted & mild soft tissue thickening along right pleural cavity and the impression as mild pleural effusion. The spinal curvature says that it's been straightened and anterior marginal osteophytes. Kindly tell that does all these impressions are treatable or does anything needs surgical intervention! Please intimate the above mentioned issues kindly so that the families anticipation can be relieved a bit. All the other reports and vitals are in normal condition. No other health issues found. Is he safe and out of Dager! Anything to panic about the mentioned reports!! Thanking you in anticipation,
