Thanks for your question I completely understand your question pleural effusion occurs in the pleural cavity that is the covering of lungs, when there is effusion pain is due to pleurisy that is inflammation of the pleura. After the pleural effusion is healed, as it heals by pleural fibrosis or thickening the stretching of the healing pleura causes pain no need to worry this pain can continue for variable time. Complete pleural fibrosis and cure takes time, so you need to consult a pulmonologist to evaluate the situation thanks feel free to ask more questions may god bless you with good health
