I'm worried about my chest X-ray results and don't really feel satisfied with the explanation I got from my doctor. The report mentions a nonhomogenous patchy opacity in the right apical region with adjacent fibro-bronchiectatic changes, along with a few small calcific densities in the right upper zone. It suggests something about chronic infective etiology. Could you help me understand if this is something serious or if I need to be concerned?

View allI've been having a hard time taking a deep breath for the last 8 months. I can manage normal, short breaths, but I constantly feel the need to take a deep breath, and when I do, it just doesn't feel right. There's no fever, cough, or wheezing, but sometimes when I do cough, a tiny bit of clear, colorless mucus comes out. My X-ray came back normal, but I'm worried it might be COPD. I've never smoked, but I have been around secondhand smoke now and then. I'm still able to skip rope for about 4 minutes without stopping, and my SpO2 levels average around 98. Could you help me understand what's going on?
normal according to history, stop worrying

I'm noticing some black spots in the phlegm that I'm coughing up. Could you help me understand what this might mean? I'm a bit concerned.
The presence of black spots in phlegm from your mouth could be due to various reasons, including fungal infections like oral thrush, poor oral hygiene, or inhalation of pollutants; however, it may also indicate more serious conditions like bronchitis, pneumonia, or lung abscess, so it's essential to consult a doctor or a pulmonologist for a proper evaluation and diagnosis to determine the underlying cause.
