CT scan showing "pleural tags"
Few months ago I got CT scan done. It shows "pleural tags". Wanted to understand if it's of any significance or any further investigation suggested.

Nothing to worry. It only suggests previous infection. If you are not having any symptoms, you need not worry. Pl give detailed history of previous illnesses. Pl consult Pulmonologist online with all the reports and treatment taken.
