Hello!
Thank you for the query.
If you smoke, this might be an image of something serious in the lungs. As an x-ray is a very sketchy test, many findings can not be identified as a specific disease. And so is in your case. In the upper right lung there is some space seen. It needs to be checked with more accurate test which is chest CT.
Please consult pulmunologist.
Hope this will help.
Regards.
