Asked By:Exciting472510 in New York, New York

March of 2022 i did an abdominal ct scan shows i have atelectasis in my left lung. Doctor told me to do breathing exercises and also prescribed Qvar and Abuterol. I also have asthma with i mentioned to the certified plastic surgeon and he said it was ok. But i totally forgot to mention atelectasis. Will that pose a problem or complications? Im scheduled for plastic surgery 2023.
