What Does "opacity In Lung" Suggest On Chest X-ray?
I have had wheezing in my lower left lung only when I was taking really deep breaths for about 6 months now. I finally went to a clinic and they sent me for a lund xray. The secretary called with the results, and said that there was an opacity on my left lung. And said that I have to go for another xray in 6 weeks. No other info, why aren't they doing more to find out what it is, and what do you think it is?

Hi
According to the history it might be an infection of the lungs that usually after 6 weeks should be disappeared .This is the cause you should repeat the chest x ray
