hi sharad
fibrotic opacity in the lung can be due to various causes which include :-
lung infections like pnemonia, fungal infections.
tb has to be ruled out.
inflammatory disease needs to be ruled out.
the opacity could be due to the occasional smoking you do.
i would suggest go see the pulmonologist to rule out the above condition.
hope have answered your query.
thanking you.
