Mild Hemothorax

Respectful Sir/Madam, Uncle had an accident recently and went to emergency room. The right side 4,5 and 6th ribs were fractured and there was mild hemothrax noted by the respective physician. The doctors said nothing to panic and were shifted the patient from icu to general ward. Kindly tell that do mild hemothorax need any surgery or does it heal itself in few days. Please let know as we are in deep anticipation. Thank you,

Dont worry for mild hemorthorax, but occult pneumo should rule out. Share CT films. Take online consultation for further evaluation and management.

No need of any intervention. It will heal by itself Just check it with follow up xray to identify if it’s increasing or not
