hi my friend has been diagnosed as old tb scar and she has been said that se is medically unfit in uae she is so upset because of this she need to go back to her nation.She needs her scars to be healed.Doctors say scaras or nodules are in apical region please help.
Hellhole tubercular scar i.e. healed lesions is a typical feature with the help of which doctor can identify that patient was an old tubercular or not. Unfortunately these lesions will remain for forever in lungs. Till date there is no medicine which can remove these scars from lungs (apical region) . Even after 50 years of infection these scars will remain in lungs. Only surgery is an option and that is too complicated and risky to life.However, your friend can produce a certificate that he is not an active tubercular patient form a medical board. Hope this will help you.
