A member asked:
Can mild fibrosis of lungs be cured? if yes, then what's the medication for it? it shows only in right lower lobe in hrct (lungs)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Fibrosis of the lung, even when mild, cannot be reversed because it represents scarring. You need to prevent further damage. If you smoke, you must quit now and your doctor can help with this, if needed. Best of luck to you!
