Pleurisy is a condition in which the layer covering the lungs, called the pleura, becomes inflamed. Doctors sometimes refer to this condition as pleuritis.
Most patients will complain of a sharp chest pain that feels worse with breathing.
Other symptoms can include shortness of breath and a dry cough.
Causes:
The usual cause of pleuritis is the result of a viral infection (such as the flu) or a bacterial infection (such as pneumonia).
