A member asked:

Hi sir i have calcific density in lungs. i got a job in saudi so i have to cure this as early as possible. please tell me how to cure quickly?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No quick cure: For this. If it is calcified, it means that it has been there already for some time. It is most likely old infection, such as tuberculosis, so make sure you get checked out for TB and treated if necessary. Other infection or damage can cause it too. You need to see a doctor in any event.
