Patient's question:
My dad has been coughing a lot recently. A thorough examination revealed a pulmonary bleb in the lower lobe of the left lung. Is the pulmonary bleb in the lower lobe of the left lung serious?Doctor's answer:
The elderly suffer from persistent cough and carefully examine the lower lobe of the left lung, which is a very serious disease. It is generally caused by long-term stimulation from chronic inflammation, and there is no particularly effective specific medicine for it at present. Only antibiotics are needed to treat it and prevent further exacerbation. Moreover, it is necessary to constantly monitor its expansion changes, and it may also have malignant inflammatory regression, which needs to be checked carefully.
