Hello
Thanks for the query
I have had many patients whose visa got rejected because of scar in the lung. Unfortunately gulf countries do not accept individuals with previous history of Tb ( even treated patients). There is no treatment or medication he can take to reduce the scars.
I hope I was of help, if you have any further queries please get back to me
