Under diagnosed lung infection

2019-02-25 21:42:36
Hello doctor. Last month I had fever, chills, cough & fast breathing. There's a patchy haziness in upper right zone and bilateral hilar areas in my chest x ray reports. ESR is 100. Mantaux test is negative and sputum test is also normal. Though my fever, cough & other issues are cured from antibiotics (just 5 days treatment as I haven't visited the doctor after that) but now I'm feeling pain in my chest  may be in ribs. I have constant feeling of there's something pressing my head at different regions. Kindly guide me in the matter.

Hi. I understand your concern s. You will need to undergo a detailed examination and investigation. Consult a pulmonologist for the same at the earliest
