I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you.
Treatment for a pneumothorax usually involves inserting a needle or chest tube between the ribs to remove the excess air. However, a small pneumothorax may heal on its own.
Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.

The treatment of pneumothorax depends on a number of factors, and may vary from discharge with early follow-up to immediate needle decompression or insertion of a chest tube. Treatment is determined by the severity of symptoms and indicators of acute illness.
I need to study your complete medical history that would help to identify best possible treatment. Let's discuss it in more detail.

A pneumothorax is a condition in which air becomes trapped in the pleural space. This is usually caused by trauma to the lung, or a “punctured” lung. The patient continues to breathe, pulling air into the injured lungs, but the air escapes into the chest cavity. A pneumothorax is a condition in which air becomes trapped in the pleural space.

To be honest, one injection will mostly not cure the illness. Ankylosing spondylitis can be a disabling condition leading to many problems. You will need physical therapy along with other medication as well as clinical assessment and other blood investigations. The duration of treatment will ultimately depend on the disease severity which will be clear if you consult an orthopaedician/rheumatologist for the same.
