Hi,

I understand your concern. Based on the chest x-ray report you have furnished, it states that you are having pulmonary tuberculosis affecting the upper portions of the lung. You need to take a proper course of treatment with proper combination of anti-tubercular drugs and regular follow-up to get the disease cured. Kindly consult chest physician for clinical evaluation and appropriate management.

Hope the information provided would be helpful. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ashakiran S
