A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pneumonia: Depending upon the causative agent of the pneumonia, the extent of involvement and the duration of illness and the underlying state of the patient there may have been significant damage done to lung tissues and the airways. This needs thorough evaluation from an expert in pulmonary medicine. Good luck.
