Hi,
Your report shows opacities in the left upper zone of the lung field with a small cavity.
Which seems to have raised hilar region of the lung. This strongly suggests the possibility of Koch's infection.
It needs to be confirmed by blood tests & sputum test followed by specific treatment advised by a chest specialist. for sufficient length of period & supported by nutritious diet, vitamin & iron supplements & healthy lifestyle.
It has good chances of healing with meticulous care. Please don't be stressed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
