Is There Anything That I Could Do So That The Scaring Wont Show In The Xray?
Hi I'm planning to work abroad but I have a history of tuberculosis before. I am healed but I'm afraid that my pre medical exam might show some scaring in my lungs. It has very minimal to almost light scaring. Is there anything that I could do or drink so that the scaring wont show in the Xray?

Hello and thank you for asking HCM,
unfortunately there is nothing you can take to hide the scars in your lung. But if you are treated well and if you recovered totally from TBC, then there should be no reason to be worried about.
I hope this answer was helpful to you.
