I'm worried about my dad. He had TB last year, and we finished his treatment in April. But now it looks like the TB is coming back. Could you recommend a really good doctor?

I'm really worried because I've been experiencing shortness of breath lately and my X-ray showed a spot on my lungs. I have a history of smoking, and occasionally I drink.

I'm a bit worried about my X-ray report. It mentions mildly prominent bronchovascular markings and a horizontal fissure. Is this something I should be concerned about? I recently had a cold with a cough and fever for a few days, but after taking antibiotics, the fever's gone. That's why I went for a chest X-ray. Could you help me understand what these findings mean?
