Hi. I can understand your concern.
Sometimes you could have had lung infection which could have gone unnoticed, as any wound scar after skin wound. The lung infection aslo may leave a scar and may not totally clear.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query.
Wish you good health. Thanks.
