Hi,

Of course, you are cured. When an infection like pneumonia or other types of infection is cured it can leave in lungs a scar.

The situation is resolved, you are cured but the scar will remain forever despite the treatment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka,
General & Family Physician
