How long should my pneumomediastinum last ive had a reoccurring pneumomediastinum for about a year now I attempted light smoking every other month or so but I haven’t smoked in 3 months and it felt great no pain, now I feel small air bubbles under my right rib cage and a similar pain/discomfort I used to have. They diagnosed me with pneumomediastinum I had a history of juuling.

Is this disease dangerous? I think I may have it too. I smoke cannabis daily and sometimes I get this insane chest pains in the center of my chest. It hurts alot but I dont have any problems with breathing and the doctors say Im fine. Maybe I should rather get a scan

Thank you so much for the video! I had a question, at 16:49 what are the black patches seen in the center of both lungs?
