Hi,
The causes of infection in the lungs and cavitation (hole) due to pulmonary tuberculosis or Wegener's granulomatous or necrotising pneumonia or bronchiectasis.
Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Treatment depends upon the cause. Please post the report if you got. Till then symptomatic therapy is useful.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
