Dr. Hanif warmly Welcomes you!

Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I will take care all of your medical concerns.

No I dont think so that you need to worry much about it. Just keep an eye on it. If you feel stabbing pains, fever, shortness of breath, cough, sputum, weakness and dizziness or other such symptoms, you should be in dire need to consult a pulmonologist or the ER for prompt care according to the health situation and status of the disease. Right now I will not suggest you to get treated for any lung infection.


Have a wonderful time ahead. Hope I answered all of your questions. Let me know if you have any further clinical concerns. I will be happy to get back to you shortly. If satisfied here, please give a five star rating and don't forget to close the discussion.

Regards!
