Patient's question:
A colleague from my workplace recently experienced a severe poisoning symptom and was treated at the hospital. Two days later, it was discovered that they had developed pulmonary fibrosis. I would like to understand how long people who develop pulmonary fibrosis again can live?Doctor's answer:
Pulmonary mild fibrosis caused by poisoning generally lasts for about one to three months. Since the poison has entered the human bloodstream, the symptoms typically manifest as mild pulmonary fibrosis, which will never cause significant harm to the body. As the medication takes effect, the degree of pulmonary fibrosis will gradually subside, affecting the risk to life. Therefore, if pulmonary fibrosis occurs, it is essential to seek medical treatment promptly.
