Pleurisy.
Pleurisy.
The condition is known as pleurisy, which is an inflammation of the pleura. Pleurisy causes sharp chest pains that worsen with each breath due to the rubbing of the inflamed layers of the pleura against each other during breathing.
Perhaps intercostal neuralgia.
Pleurisy, or pleuritis, is inflammation of the lining of the lungs (the pleura) that leads to chest pain (usually sharp) when a breath is taken.Pleurisy
Pleurisy is inflammation of the cover of the lungs (the pleura).

True. Pleurisy is inflammation of the pleura, the thin tissues that line the chest cavity and surround the lungs. This inflammation can cause pain in the thoracic cavity when the visceral and parietal pleura rub against each other during breathing.
An inflammation of the pleura that causes pleurodynia is known as pleurisy. Pleurisy can result in chest pain that worsens with breathing or coughing. It is often caused by infections, such as viral pneumonia.
The thin sac-like covering that protects and cushions the lungs is called the pleura. The word pleurisy is a broad term used for a variety of disorders that may occur to the pleura and usually refers to inflammation, pain, and shortness of breath.
No. Pleurisy a condition where you get sharp chest pains, usually limited to a relatively small area of the chest, that is worse when you take a deep breath. It is thought to usually arise from inflammation of the lining of the lung (aka the pleura). Tuberculosis is a specific infection that commonly affects the lung (although it can spread elsewhere). Tuberculosis is one of many causes of pleurisy.
The pleura space prevent the lungs from getting collapsed. The lungs are totally elastic organs and will collapse to very small ball, if air enters the pleura. You have little fluid and negative pressure in the pleura, to keep the lungs in expanded condition.
Thickening of the pericardial reflection of pleura refers to an abnormal thickening of the double-layered membrane that surrounds the heart (pericardium) and the lungs (pleura). This can be caused by inflammation, infection, or other underlying conditions. It may lead to symptoms such as chest pain, difficulty breathing, or a persistent cough. Treatment depends on the underlying cause and may involve medications or procedures to relieve symptoms and address the underlying condition.
