Hello I am Dr Ravinder Sharma ENT surgeon
On the basis of information provided it appears that you have infection of one lung (may be bronchitis, or pneumonic patch). It is difficult to make out the probable cause with this much information. There are quite a good number of conditions which may affect one lung. I would advise you for a ENT consultation and a Chest consultation to resolve the issue.
I hope this answers your concerns. Feel free to contact me if your need more information on this
With warm regards
