[/INST] Hi,Dear,Thanks for your query to HCM.Dear I read your query and reviewed it with context to your query facts.I understood your health concerns and feel Concerned about them.Based on the facts of your query, you seem to suffer from-?TB / or Parasitic Granuloma with scar?Asbestosis with granuloma with Scar.Treatment-Consult your Chest Physician,who would rule out the various causes leading to Lung scar like you have.As you don't seem to have accompanied dyspnea or any other complaint ,you need not worry, as it seems to be incidental finding and seems to be caused by old illness...mostly TB lungs.IGRA and PCR tests of the scar tissue biopsy would confirm any active lung infection right now in your case.Supplementary blood ESR,CBC,would be helpful in coming to specific cause of the scar in your lung.Hope this would help you to solve your health issues in the best way possible. Welcome for any further query in this regard.Good Day!!Dr.Savaskar M.N.Senior Surgical SpecialistM.S.Genl-CVTS </s>
