I'm from Delhi and I've been experiencing some issues with my breathing. My SpO2 level sometimes drops to 93 and then slowly returns to 97 after several hours. I also have a little cough. My doctor asked me to get an x-ray, and I've attached it here. Can you look at my x-ray and tell me if there's anything concerning about my lungs?

I'm having trouble getting enough oxygen. I've got a cold and I'm coughing up a bit of phlegm, but there's not much of it and its brown. I've also got nodules on my lungs, and the largest one is around 5 cm. Does this sound like something I should be worried about?
