[|Human|] I recently had mild pleurisy and i was on antibiotics for a week, its been over a month since i was back to myself but im still feeling tired and my breathing isnt the same as it was before i had pleurisy, i feel breathless and my heart beats faster all the time i have started a cough that wont seem to go, im worried.
[|AI|]  Hi thanks for contacting Chat Doctor..... Pleuricy means irritation or inflammation of pleura. What was your diagnosis ??? Common causes are......-viral flu-bacterial infection-fungal infection-malignancy-connective tissue disease like rheumatoid arthritis...etc.... So rule it out by detail history and investigation pneumonia was causative factor then sputum culture done for choosing antibiotic. Which antibiotic you have given??? In severe bacterial infection iv antibiotic needed.... So causative treatment needed. Here as pleura inflamed two layers rub against each other when breathing done.... Produce pain... Hope your concern solved. Chat Doctor.
