Air that enters the pleural space during inspiration but is unable to exit during expiration creates a condition called Pneumothorax.

<h3>What is Pneumothorax?</h3>

An abnormal buildup of air in the pleural space between the lung and the chest wall is known as a pneumothorax. Shortness of breath and quick, acute, one-sided chest discomfort are common symptoms .  A tension pneumothorax happens when an area of injured tissue forms a one-way valve, increasing the amount of air in the gap between the chest wall and the lungs.  As a result, there may be an oxygen deficiency that worsens with time and low blood pressure. Obstructive shock is a type of shock that results from this and can be lethal if left untreated.  A pneumothorax can very infrequently affect both lungs.  Although the term "collapsed lung" can also refer to atelectasis, it is frequently used to describe it.
