New research shows that the lungs become more inflammatory with age and that ibuprofen can lower that inflammation.
Ibuprofen may lower lung inflammation and help elderly fight tuberculosis bacteria, a new study has found. Immune cells from old mouse lungs
The lungs become more inflammatory with age and ibuprofen can lower that inflammation, according to an animal study published in the Journal of Leukocyte Biology. In fact, immune cells from old mouse lungs fought tuberculosis bacteria as effectively as cells from young mice after lung inflammation was reduced by ibuprofen.
The groups had similar messenger RNA expression of genes that regulate inflammation and remodeling in the lung. Lungs from ibuprofen-treated
Other studies have argued that ibuprofen can actually help combat lung infections by reducing inflammation, which may damage the lung. Q

The non-porous covering is not to keep air out of the lung, it's to keep air from entering the pleural space between the lung and the chest wall. If this happens it causes the lung to collapse, an atelectasis (partial) or pneumothorax (total)
