assuming that his diagnosis was correct. and as long as he is comfortable and feeling better on his medications pleurisy should not be a big problem. i am a little concerned that the doctor gave an antibitoic since pleurisy is usually viral (not bacterial). i also assume that you are going with him and there are medical facilities near the location of your camping. if i had pleurisy i would rather be in my own house. on my own bed.
my 13 year old was just diagnosed with pleurisy. will camping make it worse? . he had a chest ex ray which was normal. he is not in pain but doc heard squeking on 1 side that sometimes causesa tickling sensation on lung on that side. doc started him on antibioyic and tylenol with codene that he started today. plans of camping for 2 days 70's during the day low of 40's at night will this be bad for his condition?
