Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
my name is rob and in the last few weeks I have been up close and personal with a lot of balck and also yellow mold, since then ive had a hard time breathing and getting worse had x-ray said calcium in lungs but now have rib sticking out on higher left side very painful to the touch under the left arm, how concerned should I be
Dear patient You should take utmost care of yourself. Exposure to mould leads to lung irritation and infection which leads to coughing and chest pain. I would advise CT scan of chest plain SOS contrast. Please take a visit to pulmonologist nearby you with report and he will guide you with proper treatment.
