Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
* As per my clinical experience, once expanded lung will not give these much intense trouble unless there is infection or other issues.
* I recommend to consult in follow up chat with all reports as an attachment for best possible evaluation.
Regards.
