Is there any chance I can get around the visa denial issue due to the old TB marks on my X-ray? It's frustrating because I had TB six years ago, I've been completely fit since then. I really don't know how to get a clear X-ray now. Is there anything I can do about this?

I'm a bit worried because I had a fever of 101 four days ago, but now the fever's gone. However, my COVID test came back positive, and I also had a chest X-ray done.
