Hi,

As per your history your chest x-ray shows density in right side of the lung that may be because of tuberculosis lesion or other infection. Mention your other complain like sputum color , consistency, fever present or other symptoms. Corelation of chest x ray and clinical symptoms give exact idea about problems.

Proper history and physical examination is more helpful for diagnosis. In lung infection proper dose of antibiotics are given after sputum culture test. Drink more water and avoid smoking. Avoid alcohol drinking. Consult a pulmonologist for further diagnosis.

I hope my guidance is helpful to you. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Rachana Goswami
