Hi, I am 31 years old. I was diagnosed with Pleural Effusion in left lung in the year 2013, and was identified as TB. I had undergone pleurodesis (chest tube method), and ATT medicines for 9 months. Then, I was declared medically fit by my physician. However, chest x-rays still reflect pleural thickening (white patch in left lung), even after 3 years of the cure of disease. My questions are. 1. How to permanently remove this white patch in left lung (since I have to apply for visa shortly) 2. If, in future, the pleural fluid increase in left lung, how would I come to know, since white patch reflects anyway. Thanx in anticipation of response.
