I have a hole in the left side of my chest and 4 gashes on my upper left torso, also have a few gashes on my left shoulder, and my ribs are broken on the left side as well. Everytime I take a breath, a weird hissing sound, along with frothy blood comes out of the hole in my chest, making it hard for me to breathe. What will the EMT's and doctors do to treat my condition, and after I leave the hospital, what can I do for self care at home?

Dear Katana

You did not say your complete history how this hole happened. Like !!! it was any trauma or infection. In your case immediate chest tube is require and surgical intervention is necessary. Please remoin in touch with a goof thoracic surgeon.
