I recently had a chest x-ray and the result says there are suspicious infiltrates in the right apex, and it mentions considering pneumonia. Does this mean I have pneumonia? Im not feeling any issues with my breathing, and my chest doesnt hurt. I dont have any cold or flu symptoms either. Should I be worried?
A chest X-ray showing suspicious infiltrates in the right apex could suggest pneumonia, but it doesn't confirm the diagnosis on its own. Since you're not experiencing symptoms like breathing difficulties, chest pain, or a cold, it might be worth discussing the results further with your doctor to evaluate whether further tests or monitoring are needed.
