Broncoscopy needle coughing afterwards
My 67 year mother got broncoscopy done in which biopsy sample was collected niddle one, I think..
After that she had sore throat which is gone now but now on 2nd day her chest feels heavy and she is coughing a little more and this coughing is not dry.. while coughing her ribs are paining..
Before this test, she was absolutely fine just some dry cough.. Is this normal or worrisome?
Can she continue using her CPAP from today in this condition?
I'm scared.. till how long after this procedure, she can get side effects lyk this? When will she be in safe zone? Please Please reply
