I'm concerned about a non-homogenous opacity nodular in the right upper zone of my lungs. I'm planning to undergo a GCC medical examination for Saudi Arabia and I'm wondering what this means for my health and if it will affect my medical test. Could you provide some insights or advice on this situation?

I've been dealing with a mild pain in my right chest for the past three months, and I'm starting to worry. I don't have a cough or anything serious like that, but for some reason, I've gotten in the habit of exhaling this white mucus from my right lung and spitting it out, like, over 200 times a day. It feels like I can't stop this habit without feeling a kind of burning sensation in my lung, like something's there and it starts acting up. The mucus is pure white, not bloody, sometimes even gel-like. Could this be causing the chest pain? Should I be worried about this habit?

I'm really anxious because I got a positive result after taking a TB Gold Standard test for my UAE work visa, but I'm not showing any symptoms at all. Could there be any connection between this result and HIV, even though my HIV test came back negative? I'm really worried and need some clarification on what's happening.

I'm really worried about my aunt who was recently admitted to a top hospital in Mumbai because she's been having trouble breathing. They've done an ECG and a lung X-ray, and both came back normal. Her blood pressure is also fine, but the doctors still cant figure out what's causing her breathlessness. Do you have any ideas on what could be going on or what steps we should take next?
