What Do These CT Scan Results From Chest For Wheezing And Breathlessness Indicate?

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

There is minor fibrosis (thickening) seen in the lower part of your left lung. This may not be the reason for wheezing. You can consult a pulmonologist and plan for a spirometry.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
