Hi,
It is important to know your age. Because according to your explanation you may be suffering from lobar pneumonia, may upper lobe consolidation with lobar lymphadenopathy may be tuberculosis. So your age and physical signs and symptoms will help to rule out the correct diagnosis.You may be suffering from aspiration pneumonia. Blood examination, signs & symptoms will tell exact conclusion of the disease.
Thank you.
