Hi There
After going through your query I understand your concern.
I would like to tell you that patchy consolidation is an indicative of lung infection ( Pneumonia) that can be bacterial Pneumonia, atypical pneumonia or viral pneumonia etc. that requires further evaluation for proper management.
Course of antibiotics, steroids, nebulization and healthy diet will be choice of treatment according to the symptoms. Kindly consult with a Physican/Pulmonologist for further management.
Hope to have been helpful.
Kind Regards
Dr. Navneet Bansal
