How To Cure Pleurisy While Having Pneumonia?
I recently had pneumonia for three weeks. I m over it now but developed pluerisy which I ve had for two to three weeks. How long can pluerisy last and could it be an underlying issue? I used to smoke 3-4 cigarettes a day prior to getting pneumonia a month ago. I am not on any mess for the pluerisy.

Hello dear from my opinion I am suggesting that your pleurisy is as a result of the pneumonia and is exacerbated by the smoking habit please quit smoking take nurofen tablet multivitamin capsules for the pleurisy
