Pulmonologist,  's  Response
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Pus formation in lungs is mostly due to tuberculosis or anaerobic infection.
And best treatment is
1. Removal of all pus through intercostal drainage (ICD) tube
2. Pus culture and sensitivity report. Culture will isolate the causative organism and sensitivity report will guide about effective antibiotic treatment.
So better not to take haphazard antibiotics.
Consult pulmonologist and get done ICD tube insertion, remove all pus and start appropriate antibiotics according to sensitivity report.
This will improve your infection rapidly.
Don't worry, you will be alright with appropriate treatment.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. WishWish you good health. Thanks
