I've been concerned about my chest x-ray results taken about six weeks after having COVID. One doctor mentioned that there's a slight infection and suggested taking azithromycin 600 mg for a week, but another doctor advised me that there's no infection. Could you help clarify if there's actually an infection or if I need to take the antibiotics? I really prefer not to take more medication unless it's necessary.

Continue same treatment as advised by the physician.
