Question 1

I'm really worried because my wife has been diagnosed with fibroadenoma in her right breast, and it's positioned just above her ovary. Our doctor thinks surgery is the best option, but I'm not entirely sure and feel like I need a second opinion on whether this is necessary. What do you think? Could there be any other treatment options we should consider?

Accepted Answer

Right pleural thickening, as seen on your chest X-ray, indicates scarring or inflammation of the pleura, the membrane surrounding the lungs, which can be caused by various factors, such as past pneumonia, tuberculosis, asbestos exposure, or other lung diseases, and while it's often benign, your doctor may recommend further tests, like a CT scan or pulmonary function tests, to determine the underlying cause and assess any potential impact on your lung function or overall health
