Atelectasis and Pneumothorax

Atelectasis and pneumothorax are lung conditions characterized by lung collapse due to various causes, including blockages or trauma. Symptoms include chest pain and difficulty breathing, with treatment tailored to the underlying cause.

Atelectasis and pneumothorax are conditions involving lung collapse, leading to chest pain and breathing difficulties. Atelectasis occurs when a portion of the lung collapses due to blocked airways, often caused by mucus plugs or tumors. Pneumothorax, on the other hand, results from air accumulation in the pleural space, usually due to trauma or lung disease. Symptoms include sudden chest pain and shortness of breath. Treatment depends on the underlying cause and severity, ranging from observation to chest tube insertion or surgery. Prompt medical attention is essential to prevent complications and restore lung function
