Suggest Treatment For Pain In Right Lower Chest Area
I have been having severe pain in my right lower chest area. It is painful when I breath in and out, all since I had a cold three months ago, which caused me to caugh hard. y Doctor ordered a cat scan of my chest. The results were a small area of reticular infiltration in the lower segment of the right middle lobe. Also found was a small calcified node in the right tracheobroncial region. Please let me know what this means. I suffer with pain and I don t have an appointment until two weeks. Please help me! Also if you need my age it is 57 years old to help you! Thank-You So Much, Mary Jane
