General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,
Thanks for trusting Healthcaremagic!
I have gone through your query and I can understand your concerns.
These are suggestive of old and healed infections like tuberculosis. these are not active disease process and no treatment is required in most of the cases.
Get a sputum examination done to rule out any active infection.
Generally no treatment is required.
Wishing you good health.
Thanks
