I got that before too, a couple of times already. The moment i had it i thought i'm getting a heart attack but mine always go away after a day. I think i kinda pulled the muscles while sleeping. If your lung still hurts after a day or two i suggest u see a doctor. Take care!

We have tiny little air sacs that make up our lung tissue. They're called "alveoli" (each one is an "alveolus"). In order to work properly, they need to maintain elasticity. It's also important that the walls of the sacs maintain their structural integrity. Cigarette smoke, air pollution, and some genetic conditions will cause the walls of the alveoli to harden or to lose their elasticity and for the individual sacs to collapse. If that happens, the surface area where oxygen can enter the bloodstream through the alveoli decreases. \n\nThis isn't a perfect analogy, but think about it this way: if you're trying to blow up a balloon, but you pinch the opening too tightly, you won't be able to get air into the balloon (your bloodstream). What you're doing there is decreasing the "surface area" of the hole. At a certain point, you won't be able to get any air in the balloon at all - or at least not enough to beat the resistance of the tension of the inner walls of the balloon. \n\nWith emphysema, as the disease progresses the person can't get enough oxygen through the walls of the alveoli and into the bloodstream to sustain life, and eventually asphyxiates. Even with increasingly pure doses of inhaled oxygen, the lungs lose their capacity to oxygenate the blood.\n\nAlthough emphysema isn't curable, lung transplantation offers some hope. Also, its progress can often be arrested by quitting smoking, reducing pollutants in one's environment, and by use of some steroids (some of which have very severe side-effects, though).

It sounds the the radiologist saw something lightning up near the root of the right lung, where its bronchioles and vessels converge.  It's just a descriptive phrase, so it doesn't give a diagnosis.  Hilar prominence could be nothing, or it could be inflammation, or it could be a sign associated with sarcoidosis, or it could be an infection, or it could be cancerous.  \n\nI really wouldn't get worked up about a phrase in a report.  Talk to the doctor for the whole story.

See a doctor right away, you have a problem with your lungs.  Could be simple, could be more serious but the sooner you start to fix it the better.

There are many blood vessels in the lungs, but if they burst, they seal up immediately because they are so small.  You will be fine, but you should still see a doctor because a doctor will know more than me.

Could be Bronchitis, maybe Pleurisy. You could go to your doc and get a chest xray. This will show any fluids, and enlargements, however pleurisy will not show on an xray. Your doc can tell if you have pleurisy by listening to your lungs. Pleurisy usually is a one sided pain though. Sounds like some kind a respiratory infection. Good Luck!

It doesn't sound like it.\nI'd call the doctor, just to make sure.\nAnd don't put it off in case there is something wrong!

Use a stethoscope to listen to the lungs. Place the device posterior (on the back side) to cancel out any noise coming from the heart beat.

Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcaniconiosis?\nsure, I can. The secret to it is that the first "p" is silent. LOL

I would contact your doctor who handled your case, spontaneous pneumothorax once makes you more likely for another.  But there is no way to eliminate your chances, I have seen folks come into the ER for a cough, a sneeze, and then others have no reason or way they know it could have happened.  I have seen repeated visits from folks who have problems.  I again would contact your doctor and see what he or she would like you to do.  They might have something they wish for you to do in order to fly, or swim or they might advise against it.

I'm gonna have to go with my gut and say that a having an extra sac (even if it's filled with air or pus) is probably a bad thing. Of course, I'm not a doctor, so it may be really great. Might wanna swing by the M.D. just to check.

I live in France so I fly transatlantic a lot to visit my family in America. The best solution I have found is a product called "Earplanes".  You can get them at the drugstore. They are not too expensive, I think, about 10 dollars.  \n\nThey are earplugs that have a ceramic valve in them that regulates the airpressure outside the ear. You have to put them in about an hour before landing. Some people with severe problems (or a bad cold) put them in before takeoff.

external air pressure is greater than that in the lungs at the end of the inhalation. you relax and the air is passively "squeezed out" by the higher air pressure outside our bodies. When we inhale, we tighten our chest muscles and diaphram and expand our chests creating low pressure, then the air goes in, starting the proceedure all over.
