Hi Dr. I am suffering from cough and my dr said it was pneumonia. I went with antibiotics for around 3 weeks. Sputums releeased in large amount. my dose of medicine completed. After a few days I again faced cough n congestion during deep breathing. My dr suggested for cece thorax along with blood tests. Blood test reports are normal while Cect thorax says - contiguous axial sections of 10mm thickness on spiral mode from thoracic inlet to domes of diaphragm after |V administrations of contrast. "it reveals parenchymal opacities with air bronchogram s/o consolidations involving left lower lobe".
