thank you for your help my dad had chest x ray and showed cloudiness lower left lung seen the doctor because had a cough for few days while on a trip to Florida also slept on couch for few hours which found out there was mold on lower part of wall doctor said could be an ammonia but not sure what is your opinion
Thanks for your question on HCM. In my opinion your father is having left lower zone pneumonia (infection). Travelling history and chest x ray is favouring the diagnosis of pneumonia. So consult pulmonologist and get done sputum culture and sensitivity to guide antibiotics therapy. If sputum is not available than get done bronchoscopy and BAL (Bronchoalveolar lavage) analysis and start antibiotics accordingly. He needs antibiotics, antihistamines and anti inflammatory drugs. So consult pulmonologist and discuss all these.
