Pnemothorax

2021-05-19 16:34:13
My father is completely fine. Had a pnemothorax attack 1 week ago. Had an operation with chest tube. Now his co2 level is 94. His ct severity score is 9/25 with 64% lungs working. He is suffering from little cough and abdominal pain since 3 days. Is this healed and cured automatically? What is the perfect diet for lungs. What are the dont's for lungs ?
