Chronic Pulmonary Aspergillosis

Chronic Pulmonary Aspergillosis is a long-lasting lung infection caused by a fungus called Aspergillus. This condition usually affects people with weakened immune systems or existing lung diseases. Symptoms can include a persistent cough, chest pain, and fatigue, and it can lead to complications if untreated. Diagnosis often involves imaging tests and lab cultures. Treatment typically includes antifungal medications and, in some cases, surgery. Managing underlying health issues is essential to improving outcomes and overall lung health.
