There's a 24-year-old girl dealing with pulmonary embolism, and we're really worried about finding the best specialist for her treatment. She's getting care in Nagpur, but we're looking for something more permanent. Any advice on who to reach out to or what kind of treatments might actually help her long-term?

After smoking for 6 years, I've managed to quit and haven't touched a cigarette for the past 9 months. I'm really curious and a bit worried about whether the tar has cleared from my lungs by now. If it's still there, how long will it take to fully clear out? Do you think my lungs will ever be as healthy as they were before I started smoking?

yes it will become normal , it will almost take a year
