Very limited information.Any mass in chest should be investigated.If he is already on TB medications,follow it.Many chest physicians are performing Bronchoscopy & it’s not dangerous,rather fairly a safe procedure
yes he needs bronchoscopy in order to reach a correct diagnosis.it is not dangerous in sugar patients
