Dear;
From description of xray its a case if pneumonia of rt lower zone that too mostly bronchopneumonia.
Pneumonia is very much common respiratory disease and it is easily treated with intravenous antibiotics for 5 days ad than oral antibiotics for 5 days.
It may complicate in breathless or high grade fever which needs to be taken care of.
In my opinion its a case of bronchopneumonia and it is easily curable.
Thanks for writing
