So, I used to have asthma when I was a kid and had to use an inhaler, but once I hit my teenage years, I didn't have any issues, so my doctor took me off the meds. Lately, though, I've been having this wheezing thing happen after I work out. I'm kind of worried and curiousis it normal to hear wheezing after exercise, or is that something I should be concerned about?

My pneumonectomy stump has a 6mm opening that hasn't closed even after keeping an ICD for two weeks to drain the cavity. The cavity level has reduced, but the stump opening stays the same size as before. I'm looking for treatment options other than surgery what can be done to help this heal properly?

For the 6mm opening at the pneumonectomy stump, further interventions like vacuum-assisted closure (VAC) therapy or prolonged drainage may be needed. Non-surgical options depend on the type of cavity and healing status. Consider consulting a thoracic surgeon.

I'm feeling really concerned because every night between 6 PM and 3 AM, I start getting a fever accompanied by chills and sweating. After the fever, I find it hard to take deep breaths, only managing about 8 seconds sometimes. Sometimes, the fever even hits in the evening and morning. I'm also experiencing pain on the right side of my chest, especially when I cough or try to take a long breath. I recently got an X-ray, and it mentioned something about a thick-walled cavitory lesion in the right mid-zone with some surrounding consolidation. Does this sound serious? What could it possibly mean for my health?
