HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, the black spot detected in x ray chest that does not indicate any thing wrong with the lungs unless you have such clinical presentation, taking antibiotic for this does not prove anything, if you have a cough without the fever and other conditions then no need to worry about this, the cough will go away on its own, hope this information helps you have good day.
