Hi.,
Thanku for writing into practo.
All forms of interstitial lung disease cause thickening of the interstitium. The thickening can be due to inflammation, scaring or extra fluid. Some form of interstitial lung disease are short lived, others are chronic and irreversible. The most common symptom is shortness of breath, other include cough-usually dry and unproductive and weight loss.
In ayurveda we take this condition as Shwasanat Jwara so we have to treat based on symptoms and condition of the patient. Ayurveda treatments for this condition is more effective and has no side effects.
