Chest X-ray result

2018-05-02 06:33:30
My latest chest X-ray result says I have a residual fibrosis. What does that mean? I never had any lung-related diseases nor any medical operations in the past. The most relevant cause that I can think of is the incident of fire in our apartment 5 years ago. I inhaled smokes and fumes during the incident which caused colds and severe cough.
