First: Patients with emphysema had better not do aircraft, otherwise it will aggravate the disease, may cause life-threatening. The harm of emphysema: the lung function of patients with emphysema has decreased, the lung has a substantial lesion, can not be restored to the previous level of lung function.

Second: pulmonary bullae refer to bullous emphysema, which is a kind of localized emphysema. Asymptomatic pulmonary bullae do not need treatment, and generally flying will not affect the development of pulmonary bullae. But I still can't take you on a plane. In case of recurrence on the plane, the pressure will be very dangerous. Once the lung compression ratio is too large, there will be life-threatening.

Third: you can't sit. It depends on your internal condition during the operation. If the doctor says you have more bullae, you can take the train safely. There is a possibility of recurrence after bullae surgery. If your lung development is not good, resulting in more pulmonary bullae, it is not completely clean.
