Respected user, Hi
Warm welcome to Healthcaremagic.com
I have gone through your concern in depth .
* The prognosis and recovery time depends upon the response of
medicines , host immune response , virulence of the causative organism
supportive care , dietary supplements , moral of the patient & other
factors .
* So the case requires multiple factors evaluation from different angles
still if you give follow up x-ray and reports with all investigations of
the starting phase , more insight can be provided in your case .
Hope this will help you for sure .
Wishing you fine recovery .
Regards .
