Hi
Sorry to hear your reports.
There is only 6 months gap between your Xrays.you are saying no symptoms for you but spot in left lung.dont worry.just repeat x ray.sometimes artifacts can be there.if repeated x ray shows same spot - solitary pulmonary nodule, need to evaluate .it can be infectious, inflammatory nodule , hamartomas & rarely neoplastic.dont think more.approach dr for further evaluation.
Thank u
