What are the causes and treatments for a lung abscess and pus in the chest?

Dear Ruksar ji,

Agar ek lung damage hone ke baad chest mein fluid bhar gaya hai, to yeh ek serious condition ho sakti hai. Chest mein fluid jama hone ko medically pleural effusion kaha jata hai. Iska exact cause janne ke liye doctor ki examination aur imaging zaroori hai.

Abhi kya karein

• Patient ko turant chest physician (pulmonologist) ya hospital emergency mein dikhayein.
• Chest X-ray, CT scan ya chest ultrasound ki zarurat pad sakti hai.
• Agar fluid zyada hai aur saans lene mein dikkat ho rahi hai, to doctor needle (thoracentesis) ya chest tube se fluid nikalne ki salah de sakte hain.
• Fluid ka sample test karke infection, TB, cancer ya kisi doosre cause ki jaanch ki ja sakti hai.
• Agar infection hai to antibiotics ya doosra specific treatment diya ja sakta hai.
• Lung damage ke cause ke according further treatment decide kiya jata hai.

Ghar par kya precaution rakhein

• Bina doctor ki salah ke koi antibiotic ya steroid na lein.
• Smoking aur passive smoking se bilkul bachein.
• Zyada physical exertion na karein.
• Prescribed medicines regular lein.
• Saans ki problem ko ignore na karein.

Kab turant emergency mein jaayein

Agar patient ko in mein se koi bhi symptom ho, to turant emergency hospital le jayein

• Bahut zyada saans phoolna
• Chest pain
• Oxygen level kam hona
• Hont ya ungliyan neeli padna
• Behoshi ya confusion
• Achanak condition worsen hona

Wishing you and your family good health always.
