Hi thanks for contacting HCM .
Noted you had small white spot in x ray chest....
This can be by pus filled alveoli or can be by fibrosis secondary to any respi parenchymal disease....
So antibiotic trial given to you...
If it is by exudation like pus by bronchitis then it will disappear....after repeat chest x ray....
Here I would advise you to consult pulmonologist if density increase in size in x ray....
Take care.
