Since your x ray is showing suspicious densities in left lobe i will suggest u take a course of antibiotic like tab augmentin 625 mg three times daily for 7 days and repeat the x ray.If the patch goes away then it must have been pneumonia.
But if the patch still persist after the course of antibiotic i will suggest u do CT scan of chest with contrast.
