Hi Guest,
If you don't treat it you can infect anyone near you. The infection will continue to develop and cause increased damage to lung tissues leading to scarring.
You will eventually have shortness of breath and may require supplemental oxygen just to survive.
Make time to see your doctor. PTB is no joke.
What do I do if there is no phlegm out? I am diagnosed with ptb at upper lobe.
