Common Questions and Answers about Pneumonia recovery lungs
pneumonia
I had the same situation before but just a pneumonia bilateral not covid pneumonia. Are you feeling fine now? Based on my research on pneumonia, the person having it usually recovers for about 6 months. That is totally normal coz you're still on process of healing your lungs and our body is recovering from the illness due to pneumonia. Until now I am having the urge of taking deep breaths and still working on it until my breathing is normal.
t have pneumonia? Do you have a cough? There is something called pleurisy which can hurt your lungs when you breathe, but both pneumonia and pleurisy are accompanied by a cough. Behind your lungs are your kidneys, is it possible that when you breathe your lungs are hurting your kidneys? Therefore it would feel like your lungs hurting but it's not. Just an idea if the doc is ruling out lung problems.
Pneumonia due to methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection of the lungs can be life-threatening, especially in the elderly, but recovery is possible, especially if your mother has never smoked and heretofore, had healthy lungs. Assuming that she is receiving intravenous antibiotics, either at the rehab center or the hospital, whether she is to recover or not should soon be evident by clearing or worsening of pneumonia.
You could have developed pneumonia. Burning wood also is very dirty and hard on the lungs. Also, the cold air breathing through ones mouth, is hard on the lungs. Chest is very painful after open heart surgery and takes time to get better. Did they send you home with a pillow to hold against your chest when getting up or sitting up? If you are extremely out of breath or out of breath more when trying to do something, you should get it checked.
To determine if pneumonia is still present, direct clinical examination is important together with diagnostic tests. Pneumonia caused by a virus infection usually resolve after couple of days and recovery may also be affected by various factors including the medical history of the patient. If it persists, it is best that you have this checked by your doctor. Take care and regards.
The problem results from a heart that does not have the strength to pump into circulation the amount received from the lungs AND BLOOD BACKS UP INTO THE LUNGS AND FLUIDS LEAK INTO THE LUNG TISSUES. This causes a dry cough at night, especially when lying down and hyperventilation.
I was in emergency and ICU for several days. Fluids were removed from the lungs and the oxygen level had to be brought up to normal. My heart was enlarged and I have/had mitral valve regurgitation.
ve had bad bacterial bronchial infections that required a lot of prednisone plus antibiotics to get my lungs better again. Even after the fever is gone, it took many weeks for the lungs to heal.
she listened from the middle of my back then listened to my left lung and said I had very minimal wheezing and that the pneumonia was gone and that I was in the recovery stage that involves coughing up the mucus and my body absorbing the mucus in my lungs. I never had a chest X-ray so I can't say for sure that the pneumonia was in my right lung BUT the painful spot that the previous doc identified that made him concerned was on the right and this doctor only listened to my left lung.
I have terrible pain in my lungs every time i breathe or god forbid cough - i think it can be due to the actual infection the pneumonia causes or sometimes inflammation of the linings of the lungs. as far as i know there are no specific excercises to do but steam inhalation helps - ie lots of hot showers\ baths, also drinking lots and resting (as if you have any other choice!!).
I hope you feel better soon!
That is to say that while you may have experienced clinical recovery, 3 weeks before the first test, your lungs may still have been in a recovery phase and thus, may not yet have functionally reached baseline. In other words the two test results are not comparable. A better comparison would be with PFT’s done some time in the past when you were not recovering from anything.
The second set of test results are practically WNL and, as such, cast doubt about the diagnosis of COPD.
I came down with Pneumonia in both lungs almost 1 year ago. I was in hospital for 1 week and given all sorts of antibiotics for a period a little over 1 month. My breathing is pritty good now, however i still do not feel quite right. I have days where i feel very weak, tired and generally ill. Why do you think this could be? I also for example when lifting something heavy get chest pains which last a day or two and go away.

This discussion is related to <a href='/posts/show/283416'>Multiple Lung Nodules, Pneumonia, Sweats, Minor Atelectasis</a>.
These microorganisms usually enter the body through mouth, nose and eyes, and then infect the lungs, especially the air sacs or alveoli of the lungs. Pneumonia is more commonly found to affect the lower lobes of the lungs. Apart from microorganisms, pneumonia can also be caused by any injury or damage to the lungs, caused by the exposure to certain chemicals and radiation. So, many times, people receiving aspiration or radiation therapy can too get pneumonia". This is the link:

We took this step advisedly, recognizing that recovery would be a long, slow, and painful process for her given her age, but with the aim of improving her quality of life, which has suffered considerably in the last several weeks since she had a silent heart attack.
Could be allergies, yes once you have had pneumonia you will have scarring ..it wont affect you, check out online for environmental allergies .
ultra sounds) show clear lungs; O2 levels in blood are good; when they attempt to unintubate he becomes anxious; his blood pressure n heart rates rise; the tube goes back in and he is intubated again. I am so worried on so many levels; can anyone relate to me? Any other similar experiences? Any suggestions? Thank you so much!
My aunt got bypass surgery and she was fine after a week she had breathing problems and now she is in critical condition she has pneumonia and bacteria. and for some reason the hospital say that they cant find where the bacteria is coming from. I mean whats happening is my aunt going to die?
I have been to different doctors trying get help with my breathing problem
My wife got sick 4 months ago with what she thought was pneumonia lots of coughing they finally gave her a zpac and she is fine.
I got this cough and shortness of breath I went to the doctor with her and he told me that i have pneumonia and should be home in bed.
He ordered X-rays and it showed my lower lung area clouded he said that he was worried about fibrous of the lungs.
My dad had a quadruple bypass 8 days ago. He spent 5 days in the ICU, due to several days of requiring oxygen, low blood pressure and irregular heat beats. The irregular heart beat seems to have resolved itself. However, now he is experiencing rapid heart rate. He's still having low blood pressure and while he is off oxygen, he gets winded just talking to you. At some point during his stay, it was reported he had fluid on his lungs. I haven't heard anything about that in a few days now.
During major surgery the body becomes very weak and a small infection in the lungs can simply go wild. The tiny sacs in the lungs where oxygen exchange takes place with the lungs become infected, they swell and often fill with fluid. The patient is unable to create enough pressure in the lungs to overcome this and the body gets too little oxygen, so a ventilator is used to supply that pressure.
Now, they said the water in my lungs has nothing to do with pneumonia but is caused by my heart being enlarged. According to my latest X-Ray results, I have Cardiomegaly, left ventricular form. According to my 2D Echo, I have Mitral Sclerosis with moderate mitral regurgitation. Are those caused by pneumonia? What's the best way to go about this? My doctor can't seem to make up his mind on what's causing them.
However, a week later he presented with a high fever, wheezing, rattling sound when breathing and they diagnosed bacterial pneumonia. They gave him albuterol nebulizer treatments and zithromax. The next day we were back at the doctor and he had been experiencing severe coughing fits that led to vomiting and sweating, as well as clammy skin, and he was continuing to have a lot of wheezing sound in his lungs, despite the albuterol treatments.
What started as a sore throat has affected my lungs, difficulty breathing,(mainly exhaling)(raspy sound in throat when exhaling) coughing up rust, white and yellow mucus. I start to feel better, and then bam it gets worse. now it feels like there is gross mucus trapped in my lungs, & i dont know how to get it out. Sometimes after i cough, the phlegm is so bad it makes me sick to my stomach. I dont want to go to Dr. to be told its just a virus.
