Hello
Your findings suggests fibrosis in right upper lobe.
It is generally a healed stage of past infection and doesn't require any treatment.
Infection naturally heals by calcification and fibrosis.
Fibrosis in lungs may require surgical intervention if it compromises pulmonary functions.
Other findings are normal.Heart size,both CP angles and diaphragm are normal.
Get well soon.
Take Care
