Hello - I got a CT scan yesterday due to having years of rib cage pain with nothing showing up on X-Rays and now I often have a very light bubbling or crackling like feeling in my upper chest on one side when I inhale. The CT scan showed nothing abnormal except "mild underlying emphysematous changes". My doctor's office just called and said it all looked great. Is that right? Should I get a second opinion?
