Respectful Sir/Madam,

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.

Recovery from TB
I was diagnosed with bacterial pneumonia with Tuberculosis since January '23. I have completed 6 months medicines courses for treatment of Tuberculosis as prescribed by doctor . Now I have been completely cured as declared by doctor based on last chest x ray showed very good resolution and other routine blood test showed all parameters are controlled. Now doctor said no restrictions is there and can lead normal life .
May I have one question is that smoking is directly related for cause of TB. Though I am not chain smoker, but if I take one cigarette daily will be serious issues? . Because completely quiting of smoking will create mental trauma that I realized . Please clear the issues.
