Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Scarring is a natural process after any infection in lung specially tuberculosis. There is no remedy for it. All these become lighter with time. You must do deep breathing exercises to improve the capacity of remaining lung.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
